There is nobody (aside from my own mother) that I think of as more of a mom than Jo. Even though she is much, much more than "just a mom", I think every one of Nicole and Jason's friends will agree she was the best. She was just a natural nurturer with a heart of gold and wanted to always take care of everyone. When I stayed at Nicole's house to take care of her dog when she was in labor with Keira, Jo kept bringing more and more things over for the baby, fresh food for Nicole & family, she was just so thrilled and wanted everything to be perfect for little baby Keira's arrival. I also think about the multiple times I would be partying with Jason and go next door to wake Jo and Gary up in the middle of the night to say "hiiiii" - she was always so genuinely happy to see me, was interested in how I was doing, and more than happy to whip up some food for us. I can not say I would react the same, no matter who the person was - but that was Joann to me. The most caring, loving, and selfless person I knew, she will be greatly missed by me along with so many people who had the pleasure of knowing her. I love you Jo, thanks for always looking out for us here on Earth and from now on.
