Josefina, we didn’t know each other for long but I will never forget my sweet friend. 

Josefina, thinking of you! Rest In Peace.  

All the joy felt nearly 49 years ago in anticipation to Tury's arrival into our lives has been supplanted with such overwhelming grief.  Although not biological, I considered  and loved Tury as  my little sister.  Before her arrival, I remember I started  saving  money to buy her a toy and ended up with just enough to get her a rubber ducky.  It's been very hard to come to terms with her loss  but what gives me comfort is that her soul and spirit are in the presence of our GOD.  I will forever miss her wide eyes and beautiful smile.  “Love you my dear Tury”
                                                                       
 

Such a gentle soul, warm beautiful smile! Gone too soon. Rest in peace beautiful angel.

I truly miss my sister. I know I will see her again. Until then Jesus Christ comforts me in my sorrow, because of this immense loss.
I love you Tury.  God bless you.

I worked with Josefina for a few years at Valentino. She was so shy at first, but once she opened up, you really got to see how awesome her personality was. I’ve never worked with someone who was constantly in a good mood. I will miss her. Rest easy!

I worked with Josefina for 3 years and she was just the most helpful person I had the pleasure to work with.  I will miss talking to her and making her smile in passing, she will be missed for her positive spirit and bright smile.  RIP my friend. 

Josefina was one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met or known. We worked together at Valentino and I always enjoyed any interaction that I had with her. She always had an uplifting spirit and just put a smile on your face. It saddens me to hear of her passing the world truly lost an angel on earth. 

I had the pleasure of working with Josefina.  She was an amazingly sweet person and hard worker.  I am so sad to know of her unexpected passing.  It was truly a privilege to have known and worked with her.   Rest in peace.

Josefina’s smile would brighten up any room! She was always smiling! May she Rest In Peace. 

I am simply devastated to see this news. I am pretty sure that I never, ever met a sweeter person. She had a heart of absolute gold, and always insisted on seeing-and helping others see-the silver lining. She made me smile like crazy, and I just adored her. Her Facebook page was filled with upbeat Peanuts comics, and that was so her—no complaining, no sarcasm-just sweetness all of the time.  Josefina was an incredibly special person and I feel honored and blessed to have known her and I will think of her often and try to channel some of her goodness as kindness in honor of her. Love to all of her loved ones. 

I met Josefina a little over a year ago. She was definitely one of the sweetest people I ever met. She was always happy and very positive. I would always joke with her and tell her she was too nice, she would laugh. But that is what made her such a special person. Sleep in peace my friend aka sista! 

I had the pleasure of working at Valentino with Josefina for  four months, I looked forward to going in every day only because Josefina was there. She was the most selfless person I’ve met. She saw only the good in everyone, she was so kindhearted and giving. I often times told her that I’d love to have a heart like hers. 
God made you special my love! You well be missed! 
Sleep on in Peace!

Josefina and I works at VALENTINO for a couple of year, Josefina was a peaceful , loving person she treat all staff the same she was a truly friendly person there was no bad days for her to take care and help anyone in need. Josefina I will always remember you and keep in my hearth. thank you for all , love you Margie 

I’m heartbroken to hear about Josefina’s passing. Josefina and I worked together at Valentino for nearly 3 years. She will always be remembered as one of the most selfless individuals; doing whatever it takes to fulfill employees’ needs and support the HR team. Personally she was so caring and warm; I’ll never forget her smile! I know she is at peace now and maybe even working her way through the Starbucks menu/secret menu trying everything and anything! xoxo 

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Josefina. I had the privilege of working with her for a year. Her energy, kindness, and humor were contagious. Josefina went above and beyond to support anyone in need. She was selfless and compassionate. I confided in Josefina because she was one of the only people I felt I could trust. Rest In Peace beautiful Josefina. You are an angel. 

I've worked with Josefina for 4 years and never met a nicer person! She loved Starbucks and would often go to Starbucks and bring everyone on the team back something just because she was that thoughtful! I am going to miss her terribly.....she would always have an encouraging word and had the most positive spirit! SIP my friend, until we meet again
