OUR GOOF TAPE
This video reveals a lot about our bond, in an unusual way. I was home recording a couple of videos with lots of dialogue - one was a promo piece for my (then) sometimes role as a wedding celebrant, the other a comedy piece I was developing. We were making great fun out of nothing, and absolutely loving it, simply because we were together. You will see Jo only here and there, but you will hear her throughout.
This site is dedicated to honouring Jo for her family and very large group of friends.
It is also for her children - her son, her niece, her step-daughter, her great nephew and all her dear friends' kids who thought of her lovingly as Aunty Jo.
17 years and 9 months after meeting, Jo and I married on Nov 27, 2021. It was a joyful, wonderful day, and at that time, we fully believed we would have many more years together. Jo was proud to take the name Holland as her own, and began the process of changing her surname formally. This site reflects that desire, and respects her choice to do so.
None the less, whether you think of her as Thoms, Coleman or Holland, or knew her as Jo, JoJo, Joey, Dodge, Crack or any other pet name, I know we can all agree she was a unique and extraordinary, loving woman, who has left a huge void in all our hearts.
