Jo Marie was free-spirited and always stood out in the crowd. She was not afraid to dance to her own rhythm and made many friends along her journey. Her interests included reading, collectibles, Harley Davidsons, cooking and baking for friends and family, and she had many requests for her famous cheesecake. Unfortunately, she was a Dallas Cowboys fan; but most still loved her in spite of that.
Jo was lovingly known as "Mammy" to her grandchildren. However, Jo loved all children and took on the "Mammy" role for many other kids as well. She donated to a number of children's charities. In honor of Jo's support of these organizations, donations can be made in her name to St. Judes or any other charity benefiting children.
