My deeepest sympathies to Jim and family. In my role of Massage Therapist for the West Park Senior Living Facility Mary Jo was my first patient. As a matter of fact her first day there was my first day. Both a little unsure of what lie ahead, we easily took to each other and enjoyed many deep conversations, laughs and exuberantly shared our love of food. And what a delight those weekly flowers were from the Chaplain! Mary loved the color and  the life ithey brought to her room!

I was thrilled Mary Jo allowed touch to help ease her joint stiffness and I hope it provided some comfort especially on those lingering days of unanswered, unsettled questions. Through these times the foundation of her faith did not waver. I am so very humbled and privileged to have known her for a brief time and will miss her!
