Mary Jo was a special lady. I enjoyed the three years we lived in Mt. Vernon back in the 60's getting to know this sweet lady and her family. My husband coached Joe and Jackie in basketball. They were both well mannered young men. So sorry for your loss. I will be praying for all of you. Love in Christ, Ramona Griffith

Mary was more than a sister, aunt, wife, mother, grandmother. , she was everything to a whole lot of people- she was a woman u could tell anything and everything to, and u knew she would not judge you for it, we shared some secrets and a lot of life adventures , even if I was in a bad mood she knew how to make me better, as I did her too, we just got each other you know~ I was suppose to be her caregiver and a lot of time she was my caregiver~ what I really am trying to say Mary was my inspirational angel and will never be forgotten ~MY HEART AND PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILY~

Dearest Joey , Carol , and grandchildren,
My heart is sad for the loss of Mary Jo in this life . I remember talking to Mary Jo in January and she told me that she was ready whenever the Lord wanted to take her home. What a glorious morning she must have had today as she slipped from this life into eternity.
You have been a loving son to your parents your entire life.
I love the Ussery family and am praying for Cody, Shelley , Stacey , and also for my children, Sammy, Tammy and Tim.
Mary Jo , JoJo, and Jackie are together again and singing praises to our Heavenly Father.
God Bless you,
Judy
