TEAGUE, Virginia Jo “Jo”, age 97, loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend, passed away Tuesday, November 5, 2024 at Hospice of Dayton. She was born July 25, 1927 in Bryson, TN, to Fred & Dollie (Hamlet) Siler. Jo was a faithful Christian woman who truly was the definition of unwavering love. She was hard-working, loving, caring, welcoming, forgiving and brave. Her greatest passion was in serving others, whether that was in her home or at work. Everyone was welcome and no one left hungry. She loved being surrounded by her family and sharing her zest for life with others. Another hobby Jo loved was creating beautiful quilts for many family members.
Jo spent most of her years lovingly caring for her family at home, yet she also enjoyed her work out of the home at both the Chrysler Corporation and at Vandalia’s own Christy’s Alpine Inn. She and James were longtime members of the Vandalia Baptist Temple where they had many dear friends.
