  1. To the family, you have my deepest condolences. It brings great sorrow to know Josie is no longer with us. The short time we knew one another, we became intimate friends, with a closeness enabling us, to share many of our lifes personal experiences with one another. I loved the smile on her face, whenever my husband and I visited with her. Her hospitality was friendly and always with a generous reception. Her most precious joy was her family, she gave unconditional love to them all, with only the desire to have their love. As my dear friend sleeps, until Christ returns, she will have no more unhappiness or sorrow and when she is awaken, all the happiness and joy she hoped for upon this earth, will forever be hers, in heaven.

    Josie always shared with Tom and I how she loved her children and grandchildren. My very own father even had the pleasure of meeting Josie. We all laughed and laughed and laughed. My most recent conversations with Josie were over a margarita with her daughter in law Amy, her daughter Lisa and son Ronnie.
    Josie is now resting peace 🙏🏼✝️
    We love you all. 😘🥰😍

    Josie was always a very colorful and well put together person. She would come and bring me some of her breakfast dishes. All the residents here at Seaside Lodge will always remember her and her infectious smile.
    May the good Lord provide each of you with comfort and strength during these difficult times.
