Born on March 19, 1928, in Chihuahua, Chihuahua, Mexico to Antonio Moreno & Margarita Bravo, Josefine lived a life full of faith, strength, and devotion to those she loved. She was a faithful servant who lived her life as a testament to God’s love and grace.
Josefine devoted much of her life to raising her four children Gilberto Moreno, Franscisco Moreno, Guadalupe Smith Adams and Martha Smith Paredes. She found immense joy in fishing and being outdoors, watching sports and cheering on the Dallas Cowboys, playing games, testing her luck at the slot machines, and most importantly, spending time with her beloved family and friends. Known for her infectious laughter, love of singing and dancing and wise advice, she left a lasting mark on everyone she met.

She was preceded in death by her parents Antonio Moreno & Margarita Bravo, siblings Juana Moreno, Francisco Moreno and Angel Moreno, husbands, Nicholas Salgado and Andrew Dewey Smith, her two sons Gilberto Moreno and Francisco Moreno and two of her grandchildren Margaret Rose Moreno and Antonio Moreno.
