Billie Murphy wrote a sympathy message

“Such heartache to lose John and Jo within days of one another. It was such a pleasure and honor to spend time with them at USCA Athletics. Working in Athletics opened doors for me I could have never imagined. Love them both dearly and for all they did for humanity. They will never be forgotten. God bless your sweet soul. Love, Billie”
