She was a beautiful woman inside and out. She made my wedding dress 24 years ago. She's always had a loving spirit. Gone but never forgotten.
Vicki, I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Josephine. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry for your loss, our prayers are with you. Bubble Ford and Family.
When I came to Richmond , I joined Elizabeth Church where I met Josephine,her husband and Vicki. Josephine and I worked in the kitchen, sung in the choir, studied God's word as well as her attending my family's concerts. She was one of our regular supporters. She had a beautiful spirit that made you want to always be around her. Heaven gained an angel. Praying for the family. Dottie Gassett and Family
I met Ms. Josephine years ago and then at the hairdresser. She was always a very nice person and I loved that smile. I am so sorry for your loss. Rest in Heavenly peace!! Veronica Givens
