Willie “Jo” Sherfey Lindamood Hickok, age 80, born on May 6, 1941, returned to her Heavenly home following a lengthy battle with Parkinson's and was surrounded by her loving family. Jo was born to the late John Henry and Josie Coffey Sherfey in Blountville, Tennessee. She is now rejoicing in the reunion with her parents, sixteen brothers and sisters, first husband, Bobby Dean Lindamood, and step-granddaughter Chastity Lange.
Jo was a long-time member at Steele Creek Missionary Baptist Church and enjoyed cooking her famous dishes for the entire congregation. She retired from GlaxoSmithKline in 2005 to spend even more time with her grandchildren. She loved watching University of Tennessee football
and basketball, trips to the Grand Ole Opry and flea market in Nashville and finding the best deal in a Belk department store. She loved riding bikes and hiking with her best friend, Mary Lindamood. Most of all, Jo will always be remembered for uniting her family for every holiday and special life milestones.
Jo is survived by her husband, Morris Hickok; brother, Rev. Charles Sherfey; three children, Mark and wife Kathy Lindamood; Susan and husband Greg Johnson; and Robin Minga; six grandchildren Matt Lindamood and wife Ashley, Joseph Minga, Madison Minga, McKenzie Johnson, Cassidy Johnson, Meghan Johnson and a step-grandchild, Shane Benderman; three great-grandchildren, Emma Lindamood, Sophie Lindamood, and Maisie Mae Lindamood; two step-great-grandkids, Seth Lange and Emma Shaw; best friend and sister-in-law Mary Lindamood; several beloved nieces and nephews; and her special dog, Gracie.
