Strong, Honest, Giving, Kind, Hard-working, Committed, Loving, Insightful, Peaceful, Family-oriented, Funny, Resourceful, Flexible, Understanding, Easy-to-talk-to, are just some of the adjectives that describe this remarkable woman. She has been a pillar in my life and in our family since early childhood... many times she was "the glue" that held us together. She is modest, never boastful, and always lends a hand to anyone in need. I thank God that she came in to our lives! I remember introducing her to our horse "Patches" and showing her how to feed him... I remember thinking how Cool she was on her motorcycle... I have always enjoyed sharing thoughts, feelings and life in general with her... she is an excellent listener who truly cares. She is a therapeutic painter who has experienced a fair share of "color" throughout this life... I have been blessed to have her in my life! I really do think the world of her:-)
I must say a hearty; "AMEN" to this post! I agree with every word! Some may say that this is a strange or weird comment comming from "the other mother", but I feel very peaceful; and thankful that my children love and care for Jo as "another mother". In fact, I would be disappointed in them if they did not. She was the only one who could ever complete their father. It has been obvious to me that they are soul-mates and meant to be together. Jo filled in the cracks in my childrens' lives that I helped to create, and I will forever be grateful for that. I know that this Godly woman has a beautiful mansion waiting for her in heaven. What an awesome tribute Tracie! I am very proud of you. Keep up the good work! You are an inspiration to so many! ILY
