Jo Louise Boynton, 67, of Meredith, NH passed away with her boys at her side after a short battle with cancer on April 11th, 2018. Jo was born on July 29th 1950 in Zanesville, OH to John and Betty (Shirer) Ardrey. She graduated from Maysville High School, Class of 1968. She was an admirer of music, and could many times be seen sitting with her legs crossed with a finger waving to the beat of a good classic rock song or piece of classical music. She also loved animals. Whether it be the animals on the farm growing up, her ‘grand dogs' or her cats, she loved them all and found them to be great companions. Most of all, she loved her 5 grandsons. Her face would light up every time they walked in the room, or if she saw a picture or video of them. Jo, or "Ma" as she was affectionately known as to her kids, is survived by her sons Adam and Justin (Rachel) Boynton, her grandsons, Mitchell, Tucker, Elijah, Rowan, and Lucas Boynton, and her brother Curt (Darla) Ardrey. Calling hours will be held at the Dupuis Funeral Home 11 Hill Avenue in Ashland on Friday April 20, 2018 from 5-7 pm with a time for sharing from 6:30 to 7pm.
