Jo loved people, cooking, art and gardening. She was involved in a variety of philanthropic and community organizations in the area. Bob and Jo co-founded the Legacy Foundation in 2005 to serve the Point Place and Shoreland communities. She was active in support of the Point Place Business Association, (PPBA) and the annual PPBA Golf Outing.
She is also survived by her loving sisters, Katherine Sarno (husband, Alfonso) and Mary Angela Van Wormer (husband, Melvin).
She will be greatly missed by Bob and their children: Kristene Hawk (husband Rick), Richard Kneisley (wife Amy), and Katherine Carroll (husband Timothy).
