Our deepest symthay, I will always remember Josie, the kids all swimming and fishing at the lake. We will miss her laugh and how much fun we had. May God be with you. Vic
Carol, you have our deepest sympathy and prayers. We will keep you all in our prayers. Her poor children too. Love and Prayers
My condolences to Josie, her companion Dan, family and friends. She was a really sweet person. I had some classes with Josie and she was always so kind and fun. This is a big loss. The planet needs more nice people like Josie.
RIP, Josie. You will be missed!
