I will always remember my Aunt Jo for being one of the kindest people I knew, and regret not being unable to attend her funeral. She always made sure my sister and I received a Christmas card every year after my mother's (her sister Nona) death. Her special spirit will be greatly missed by all that knew her, and the world is a little dimmer without her light within it.
