Has it been a year since we lost wonderful Jo to COVID? Jo had the most generous heart of anyone I have ever known. She struggled with her problems with an optimism that was truly inspiring. Her enthusiasm and kindness were legendary. I remember amazing trips in her car, which we dubbed "The U.S.S. StormSeeker," because we loved thunderstorms and would eagerly head toward them on our trips (the name was inspired by the star ships on StarTrek: TNG, a favorite show of ours). We saw THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA together, on Michael Crawford's last weekend in LA. 

Jo and her mother were kind enough to be my hosts for several months toward the late 90s, and we took care of each other as good friends do. She had a liberality of spirit that made her stand above many people, and an open heart. She eschewed violence, intolerance, misogyny and bigotry. She was a super hero. Anyone who knew her was blessed to have done so.
