Mrs Josephine was a beautiful soul. A God fearing woman who always shared in the love of Christ with my family. When I was a little girl she would send lists of scriptures to me to lookup and write. She was a teacher and a loving person, very considerate and faithful friend to my grandmother Ruby for many years. She will be missed by all of us. Sending prayers and condolences to her family.

🦋 Heavenly Butterfly In Memory of Evangelist Josephine Alston Though I never walked beside you here, I feel your love in ways so clear. Through him — your son — your light remains, A gentle balm for all his pains. Your faith was strong, your spirit kind, A guiding force you left behind. Now heaven holds you in its care, A peaceful place beyond compare. You rise on wings of purest grace, A butterfly in God's embrace. Your presence lingers in the sky, A quiet sign that love won't die. Evangelist Josephine Alston — Your legacy keeps living on. And though we never met in life, Your strength now touches his heart — and mine — As a heavenly butterfly. Tonja Fuller & Family
