No words can ever express how Jsephine’s one hundred years touched so many lives and enriched them. Her love of family, strong faith in God and steadfast hard work ethics helped her reach this milestone age along with her innate belief in “staying strong” from the time she was a little girl to becoming a centenarian. She will be missed by many forever.
