I met Joshephine 2 years ago as a caregiver, she was the nicest and classiest person I ever had the pleasure to work for. I looked forward to going to work for her and cried when I lost her as a client. I will never forget her. I know she will be dearly missed by her family and anyone who knew her. God Bless Josephine and her family.
