Poulstrup, Jo- It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Jo on May 2, 2015 in her 64th year. Loving wife of Finn for 45 years. Cherished Mom of Jake (Susan) and Adam (Cynthia). She was the loving Grandma of Dylan, Thea, Nathaniel and Katie. Daughter of Ralph and Eleanor McKeown (deceased), Jo is survived by her brother Bill (Janet) McKeown and sister Donna (Steve) Couchman and brother-in-law Walter (Barb) Poulstrup.

Jo was born Josephine Anne Patricia McKeown and thought that many names was a bit pretentious! As a young girl Jo-Anne won Halton County Public Speaking and was an Ontario Triple Trio Champion. Her true passion was Home Economics and attended Humber College graduating with a Business Diploma. She had an outstanding career as Account Executive for Tandus Flooring presenting product to the Design Community (Retired 2013).
Jo met Finn on Wildwood Road one spring day in 1965. They were married July 11, 1970 on Jasper Ave. in Edmonton, Alberta and followed with a church wedding at Norval United Church in Sept. 4 1970. They raised their family in Georgetown.
Jo had a joy for life and started every day with a smile and a list of things she wanted to do.
She will be remembered for a smile that lit the room and a great sense of humour. Friends will be received at the J.S. Jones & Son Funeral Home, 11582 Trafalgar Rd., north of Maple Ave., Georgetown on Tuesday from 2-4 & 7-9 pm. Funeral service will be held in the chapel on Wednesday, May 6th at 2:00 pm. In memory contributions to the M.S. Society would be appreciated. To send expressions of sympathy visit www.jsjonesandsonfuneralhome.com
