I will miss my mom everyday! She made me laugh every time we were together and she never stopped caring for me or wanting the best for me. I will miss her support and most of all her funny personality. No words to express how much it hurts to lose her beautiful spirit.
Daughter, Gloria
Gloria, I don’t know If you could even remember us, but we lived on the third floor on W. 6th St. when you were quite young. It was probably around 1973. I so remember you’re Mom and Ada, and Gil. We didn’t live at the house all that long, but remember all of you so well, and what a wonderful woman Josie was. Our sympathy to all of you.
