    Nancy Hartsoe and I, MaryJane Carty shocked and saddened by the passing of our dear friend, Jo Anne. We loved Jo Anne, we volunteered with her many, many years at ELCM. She was such joy, and brought happiness to so many. She was such a dedicated person, so willing to help others, she put others first. She will be deeply missed by so many, prayers, comfort and the love of Jesus Christ for her family.

    We are dumbfounded by this news. The angels in heaven must be shedding tears for one of their own. JoAnne was absolutely the Hands and Feet of Jesus doing his work as long as I have known her. We are so sorry we did not get to see her again and talk about the Crusaders, cooking for the Wednesday night suppers and making fried apple pies. God bless her sweet family. Much love from us here at Myrtle Beach.
