Gary, Vicki, and Clay,
Jerry and I were were so saddened to hear of Jo Ann’s passing. We had talked recently and planned on getting together—regardless of covid—when she got out of the hospital.
During those years of our early morning walks together, we had lots of various conversations, but they almost always revolved around the activities of our children. She was so proud of her family. As the grands and great-grands came along, there was always happiness in our shared “catch-up†visits. I’ll cherish those memories and pray for peace and comfort for each of you.
Love,
Linda Overman

I am so sorry to hear of Jo Ann’s passing
She was a great employee and friend! She was always so pleasant and many many people depended on her to help them with fitting their shoes, especially for their children. They came in and asked for Jo Ann all the time!
She LOVED her family! I know you will miss her terribly.
I’ll be praying for peace and comfort for her family
