May you all be comforted with wonderful memories of Jo. Some of my very best times at Lake Gaston have been playing cards with Jo and Teenie. They were always so much fun. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Dixie & Richard Timberlake

Josephine was one of the most fun people to be around. I have many memories of her and Teenie, from riding around on the golf cart with White Russians in hand, to the dancing at the point, the salt herring breakfasts, the excitement they felt as the weekenders started to arrive. They were special people. They will be missed.
