I was waiting for an obituary to appear in the PB Post before I blogged about Jo-Ann. However, there was an article in today's paper about her so decided to mention her passing today.
I had lost touch with Jo-Ann over the past several years. National politics drove us apart but locally we were in agreement on many things.
She was the sweetest person and I will especially miss her lovely smile.
There are not many people who can differ on issues and still greet you with a genuine smile and embrace. That differences of opinion don't make you a bad person and that you could truly sit down and discuss the merits of your argument with her.
Jo-Ann was one of those who could. We came from vastly different worlds, saw things in completely different lights but I was always happy to see her at City Hall or on the streets of Lake Worth.

Oh, I loved that woman
ReplyDeleteJo-Ann Golden was a lovely educated woman. I hadn't seen her for years, and I also remember her friendly smile.
ReplyDeleteR.I.P. Jo-Ann-You will be missed by all who knew you.

May she rest in peace among the angels.
Good of you, Lynn.
ReplyDeleteOh, I am so sorry to hear this. She's a fellow survivor and a great person. I loved her spirit, honesty, and will miss her. She truly loved this city.
