To know Jo, was to love Jo. She was a classy, intelligent woman. She would dress beautifully and she had a smile that would light up a room. Jo’s warm and outgoing personality, generous spirit, and selflessness was evidenced by all those who knew her. She was also great at providing direction, support, and encouragement.

Jo’s life was a shining example of dedication and service to the Lord. She was an active member of Grace Missionary Baptist Church in Lewisville, TX. Jo volunteered her time by participating in an Outreach Group: Our Daily Bread. Our Daily Bread focuses on caring for the homeless and others in the community who may need additional love to get through tough times. To serve and love others is how she lived until her last days.

Ware, Sr., sister-in-law Louise Powell; and a host of many other loved ones whom Jo considered family and friends.
