Jo had a huge impact on helping Camp and Retreat Ministries become the high-impact organization it is today with her work on the Program Division in the 1980's-1990's.
The picture at left was taken in the 1970's at Camp Magruder and is emblematic of fullness of life that Jo carried with her always.
The memorial service will be Saturday October 29 at 2pm at St. Helens UMC
Donations in honor of Jo are requested to be given to St. Helens UMC or Camp & Retreat Ministries.
