One of Dario and Jo’s special interests was supporting education, in particular, scholarships at Green River College. Jo has been a member of Soroptimist International for many years, served as President twice, and supports the club and its activities. Soroptimist also supports education and was the first service club to endow a scholarship at Green River. As a tribute to Dario and honor to Jo, the club has made a $500 gift to the Auburn Soroptimist Scholarship at Green River, in Dario’s name.
