My deepest heartfelt sympathy to Riki, Billie-Marie, Devon and Family. I was very lucky to have Jo in my life she was such a special soul with so much love to give. Seeing her marry Riki 2 years ago was such a special time as I could see she was the happiest she has ever been, marrying him with her 2 babies by her side. I will never forget you my amazing friend. Rest In Peace my little pumpkin❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

A beautiful heartfelt service for a beautiful person. Jo, I didn’t spend a lot of time with you, but when I was in your company, I learned of the special person you were. So rare it is to be beautiful inside and out but that was you. My heart is breaking for your dear Mum, Dad, Tracey and Linda and of course your hubby and kids. Rest In Peace Jo. xxxxxx 💐

Heartfelt sympathy to Riki, Billie-Marie and Devon, and family at this sad time.
Jo joined the salon team at Yarrow Street and we got to know each other well over her time there, with me as a lash model and becoming a regular lash and nail client. She always put 110% into her work and was super helpful, friendly and so caring. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
She and I were always keen to have a laugh and a story or three. Thank you for everything Jojo, I will miss the laughs x
Love

Jo was a beautiful soul, she was my cousin, though felt more like a big sister, we lived on the same street in Merredin only a few doors away, along with my brother Mark and Jo’s sisters Tracey and Linda we were an inseparable gang of young happy adventurous barefooted kids, the memories we made together will always be the highlight of my life, memories I will forever cherish, memories I will never forget.
Jo always felt like an old soul to me, like she knew a secret, like she had done this all before, she had this smile and laugh that was so infectious, and the ability to sing and dance like nobody was watching, well Jo I was watching, and I will forever look for you dancing amongst the stars, I love you Jo x
