While I like to keep my articles light hearted and humorous, sometimes it's a sad time. This is a sad time for me, as my sister Jo Jo passed away. While I knew the time was close, it hit with just as hard a punch. I didn't want Jo Jo to have to linger and suffer anymore, there was that hope in my heart that she'd pull through.

I referred to Jo Jo, as the Timex watch. As she'd take a licken but kept on a ticking! I was blessed with good parents and good sisters. But, I dwell on the funny things that happened. Jo Jo put me on our front porch with a two and a half foot drop and said that it would be good to roller skate there. I believed her and found out, it really wasn't such a good deal.

She told me that it would be good to ride a billie goat, all I had to do was hold on to his horns and ride! Somewhere between the roller skating and the billie goat ride, I learned not to take Jo Jo's suggestions all the time.

So, as long as I'm alive, I'll remember the funny stuff and how she always smelled so good with her perfume. Might just squirt a little extra on for her! This will go over big with some folks. However, Jo Jo was not just some folks, she was my Jo Jo!

P.S. Puncher fans, It's great to hear you yell for the Punchers, but yell for the Punchers, not just one player! Okay, you see yours do good, just yell, "Way to Go PUNCHERS!" Because not only did that player do good, but he had a lot of help from the other team members. When they are out on the field they are PUNCHERS not just Joe, Pete, Alex and etc..
