Gary & family:
Cathy and I are very sorry to hear about Mickey’s passing and extend our deepest sympathies. We will remember her as always having a smile on her face!
My mother was a woman like no other. She gave me life, nurtured me, taught me, fought for me, held me and yelled at me but most importantly loved me unconditionally. There are not enough words to describe just how important she is to me and what a powerful influence she continues to be. I love you mom ♥️
Mickey Jo and I met at age five living across the street from each other in Shenandoah..
We made many memories together during our childhoods growing up.
My deepest sympathies to her family.
As a friend of Mickey’s daughters growing up, I always appreciated how kind Mickey was and how she always made me feel welcome in her home. My deepest sympathies to the family on the loss of a remarkable wife, mother and grandmother.
Mickey was my neighbor on 92 ave I babysat Christy a few days a week we were very close We had so many happy times back then Mickey was the backbone of the neighborhood someone you could count on and she had the best kids I always loved her and wished we could have stayed in touch she was a very special person all my love to her family!!

I was lucky enough to call this lady my ‘Wawa’ for 28 years. Thank you for being my BIGGEST cheerleader in all my accomplishments. I miss you. I love you ❤️
Thoughts and prayers for your family. I worked with Mickey for many years at Methodist on the OB floor. We had so much fun and what a wonderful nurse and mentor.
Dear Gary and Family
So sorry to hear about the passing of Mickey Jo. Please know that you are in my thoughts. I always felt I was one of the Shenandoah classmates. Rely on your family for the support that you will need in the days to come.
