Jo and I shared and enjoyed – JOY – in the little things like they were hidden treasures
while we saw each other on our walks. Her smile and fun nature will live on in my heart.
I do wish we could have enjoyed a dish of her favorite butter pecan ice cream, together!
I would have brought more daisies along with the ice cream!
Friend and neighbor,
Mary Kimmerling
Joanne, you and your family are in our prayers during this hard time. We grieve with you for such a sudden loss and pray you will find comfort in all the memories you have of your wonderful mother.
God Bless.
She was a wonderful friend and neighbor to John and Ruth Doss. I think of her often and the vegetables they shared. She will be missed by so many because she was a blessing to them.
