    I had a great admiration for my Aunt Jo. I wish I had seen her more over the years, but the distance between us made that difficult. The last time I did see her was at her 80th birthday party, and she was still as beautiful, poised and gracious as she had ever been. I miss her wisdom and her friendship. Niece Betty Paulsen

    The birthday party on the paddle boat in Sacramento was memorable. Such a great idea to have it on the boat. Everyone enjoyed themselves and it was obvious Jo enjoyed greeting everyone and seeing everyone together having a good time. She looked beautiful. Lots of family and friends were there and filled the room with birthday wishes for Jo.

    My husband and I got completely lost en route to this party with a screaming 2 year old and almost turned back but so glad we made it. My sister, Michele, shared memories of Grandma Jo playing games with us on our visits...can you say Rummikub!?!?! Although she didn't easily express her affections she was very thoughtful. Every visit to Grandpa John's and Grandma Jo's included a few activities she specifically planned for us kiddos, and it was clear she put forth great effort to fill our Christmas gifts with the best goodies. Grandma Jo only spoke truth; her complements were few but sincere and meant so much. She was very generous to all of us and set such an example of healthy living. I always enjoyed telling friends how my late 80's grandma was still square dancing and rocking a better bod than most 20 somethings! Cheers Grandma Jo - you are missed!

    My daughter, Michele, and I were able to attend her 95th birthday party. It was joyful to see her in such high spirits. The birthday party was so nice and after a great dinner and birthday cake, she wanted to go to the casino. It was a lot of fun watching her and hearing her reminiscing about all the times my dad and she would go to Lake Tahoe when they were living in Grass Valley. She said he liked to go to the Horse Race room but she liked to play the slot machines.
