Hi mom I miss you so much. The weather has been turning cold here. I don’t know but I hope you hear me when I talk to you. I sure do miss it when I would come home and you would be doing everything and anything to take care of me. I miss waking up late at night and going into the living room where you were watching tv from your love seat and you would tell me to come and sit. Not all but sometimes I did and we would just sit and watch tv until you would say ok it’s late. Late was early morning for mom. I love and miss you so much. 

You are forever in my heart, I cherish every single memory I have of you. From here to heaven I send you heart felt hugs and kisses my fiesty angel.

Jo, my heart aches with the thought of your loss. You gave me love, laughter, words of wisdom. I found such comfort in your love, you always made me feel like I was at home when I was with you. In this world there are those who bring a light so great, that even after they have gone their light remains...You brought a fire! With your spunky personality and your witty remarks. I can close my eyes and hear your voice and I can't help but laugh, that is how I will remember you. A strong woman, who said what she felt and when she loved, she loved unconditionally. I love you Jo.

To my mom so many years you gave to raising me. How dose one say thank you to such a selfless act of love and caring. I can remember all the times you were there for me. Waiting up at night until I came home. No mater what time. There you were sitting on your love seat. You would Ask me how I was and am I hungry willing and wanting to take care of me. Times we would just talk. I knew you just wanted to share some time together but being a young boy I thought I was way to busy and had better things to do then talk to my mom. What I would give for a few of those times back. I am grateful that I was able to retire early and was able to come home and visit a lot more so in those later years I think we got to have some of those talks. I love you so much mom and I will miss you  every minute of everyday but I will never forget you mom. Mom always said I could make her laugh and I liked that. May you enter into the light and the love of god amen. 

Josephine what a spit fire she was! I remember the first time I came to Bill and Jo’s house with Kitty. We were having breakfast and Roberta and John came by. All of a sudden everyone was yelling at each other and I mean loudly yelling!
I said to Kitty why was everybody so mad at each other? She said we weren’t mad we were just “talking”😂 OK
Then Jo was in the living room at night watching her “shows” and Kitty and I were talking and laughing. Jo rips open the door and says “ shut the hell up and go to sleep”! So we went to sleep but not before laughing our heads off quietly.
She was an awesome lady and will be missed so. Love to the family

November 2019 My Brother and I just goofing around with mom. 

It was two weeks after graduating high school. I was leaving for the Army. Dad was not home at the time he was a Sky marshal. So he was rarely home. Anyway my sister Kitty and my mom drove me to LA from San Diego. Well we all said our goodbyes and off they went. Soon to come was the physical and then to take the oath. Then off to the airport all of us going in different directions me Fort Knox Kentucky for basic training and track vehicle mechanic. I remember getting there tired but that didn’t seem to matter men Yelling at us do this stand there. Then they let us make phone calls me I called my mommy.  I remember I was crying this was my first time away from home. I started telling her how mean they are and I want to come home. Mom was very sympathetic and understanding but she told me. Billy your a man now and you will be fine. I will pray for you every night but you must do this. I am so proud of you. I love you very much. Well I didn’t get to come home but mom made me feel much better. I never forget her words of encouragement and you know what things were alright and I was fine in fact I ended up loving my time in the service. Thank you mom I needed you and you were always there when I did. 

Memories of my mom always knowing she was there for me. I remember one night while in high school I came home started rummaging through the kitchen looking for something to eat had the munchies. Mom comes in the kitchen flips on the lights  looks into my blood shot eyes and  says Billy go to your room before your Father see’s you I’ll fix you something to eat. Ok mom. Ok mom she always did what she could to make things ok. I love you mom. 

What a wonderful and extraordinary woman Josephine was. A true Italian spirit that shone through. Her feisty personality will be missed.
Condolences to Kitty and all the family on your sad loss.
