Dear Family, We were friends from Sir Winston High School. We are so saddened to learn of Jo-Anne’s passing. Please accept our deepest sympathy.

Dear Bruce and family,

I knew Jo-Anne from grades 7 through 12 and from having grown up on the same street. I knew her to be both kind and gracious and do not recall her speaking a harsh word to anyone.

My sincere condolences to you all.

Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you Bruce and with your family. We know how difficult it is to loose a loved one, but God gives us strength to carry on. Peace be with you all. Sincere condolences. John and Paulette

Hello-

I just wanted to present my condolences to Jo-Anne’s family, I was an old friend of Jo-Anne and Judy Boyes in university days. We lost touch over the years when I moved from Calgary. I was very saddened by her premature passing. She had a lovely warm and caring personality and was always ready to share a laugh and listen to a friend.

I will remember her fondly. My sincerest condolences to her family.

Warm Regards Delea Hennenfent

We were high school classmates of Jo-Anne from Sir Winston Churchill High School. We remember her laugh and her smile. Our thoughts go out to her family. Very sorry to hear of her passing.

Our lives are richer for having known Jo-Anne, though only for a fairly short time. Her strength and positive attitude will always be a standard for us as we face our own challenges.

Most sincere condolences to the family.

Bruce, Carrie, Catherine & Cynthia:

As I sit down to write this message I can’t help but think….Jo-Anne would know exactly what to say at this time. It would be something that would be soothing and loving to carry us all through this difficult time. To say she had a way with words is an understatement.

Her beautiful blue eyes were truly the window into the brilliant light that shone inside. Those eyes welcomed all who knew her with open arms. Her smile would melt hearts.

How very proud I am to say that she was my friend, one that I will miss more than I can ever express. She added so much to my life, it can’t possibly all be put into words.

The hearts of all who knew her are very heavy indeed but I know for you, her family that she loves so much, she will shine her special light warmly, embrassing you always.

My deepest sympathy

Love

My aunt. My godmother. You were so tolerant when I was growing up and always treated me like your own child. I loved to make you laugh. I loved your cooking. I’m so glad I got to talk to you over Christmas. All my love to you, Uncle Bruce and Cyndy, Cathy and Carrie.
