Aunt Josie and Uncle Tony were my 2nd set of parents. Her home was a refuge for me. A candy dish on top of the fridge,pasta on the stove, cookies in the breadbox, and salami in the fridge. All served by one of the warmest hearts in the world. God bless you Aunt Josie, we will miss you.
peace, alan

I will always be grateful to Josie for keeping the traditions of the "paisani" alive! I will miss seeing her at mass and hearing her memories of my beloved grandmother, Angie. Thank you, dear Josie for loving my mother-in-law, Mary Theresa. Riposa in Pace.
