So sorry to hear of Jo’s passing. She was such a wonderful lady and we will definately miss her. The world was a better place with her in it.
Dear Cosmo & family, My heart is very saddened tonight to hear the passing of Josephine. She truly was a remarkable lady. I worked with her on the step ladder line for several years. She was a very special lady. Always had a smile on her face even if she was having a bad day. The heaven sure have gained a beautiful Angel with Josephine today. May the beautiful memories that she shared with you Cosmo be etched into your heart forever. I know I have some beautiful memories of her also that will always be with me. You with be in my thoughts and prayers, Cosmo.
Rest in peace my friend, until we meet again.
DEEPEST SYMPATHIES,
Dear Cosmo,
Jim and I were so lucky to know Josephine and you when we all worked at Werner’s and we were all part of the “Werner family”. She was an uplifting friend. So glad she got to enjoy a long retirement. Thinking of you in friendship.
