When I was a kid I remember how exciting it was when Aunt Jo, (as we called her) visited on one of her road trips. She was always so full of life, joy, laughter and love that was felt by anyone that was fortunate enough to have been touched by the special person that she was. She was the best aunt a girl could ask for. I will miss you Aunt Jo. Thanks for always being you. Love you always.
