MaryJo and I were never connected in high school but when one of classmates contacted me to join FB, she and I connected. We formed a prayer group and had 18 women, us included, praying for one another and those of our families and friends. I was fortunate to visit with her at her home in Massachusetts just this past July. We spent 4 days laughing and just making memories. Her faith in GOD was never shattered and she will remain an inspiration to everyone whose lives she touched and through those she has left behind, through our lives as well. MaryJo I know you are seeing your children and rejoicing and dancing like never before. Save a place for me girl!

Maryjo and I became friends on Facebook and although it was only for a short while, I am grateful for that time. I found her to be an inspirational woman of immense warmth and genuine kindness of spirit. This year I have had my own health battles and Maryjo was there for me always with a prayer and a kind word to uplift me. My heart goes out to all those who were so close to her, for your loss I know would be immense. People like Maryjo are few and far between, she was someone many of us I know would aspire to be like. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers for tomorrow and the coming days.
