JoJo loved family more than anything. She especially loved her great grandchildren. She enjoyed visiting them, going places with them, and looking at pictures of them on the family apps.
PaPa was the love of her life, and she loved doing anything with him. They would go on drives every day to get out of the house. They would go out to eat, visit family and friends, go to the store, run errands together, etc.
JoJo and PaPa would go out to eat with their friends or host them at their home. Many of their friends had lake houses near them and they used to all have fun trips at the lake together. Bull Shoals Lake was a big part of their lives. They had a vacation home there where they would host family and friends. Many memories were made here whether it was a boat ride, swimming in the lake, hanging out on the dock, cooking in the kitchen, watching the sunset on the deck, roasting smores, going on golf cart rides, etc.
She enjoyed shopping. She used to take her granddaughters to the mall most weekends when they were younger. She loved taking grandkids to build a bear and carried the tradition with the great grandchildren. She liked going to the casino and playing the slots. At home she would play handheld slot games and handheld solitaire. She also enjoyed bingo. She liked People magazines to keep up with the celebrities. She enjoyed Nancy Grace and true crime documentaries. She enjoyed watching home improvement shows on HGTV. She enjoyed bowling.
