Our loss is Heavens gain. I am so sorry for the loss of Aunt Josie, she was such a great woman and so fun to be around, always laughing and cutting up when she came to Oklahoma. Aunt Josie when you see my mom (Margaret Ailey) and Grandma Winnie tell them I love them.

Well the Lord got an awesome new Angel. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you. I remember her as my Aunt Josie but she was really my Grandmother Linnie's sister. I have even taken a nap or two in one of her big old dresser drawers (that's what they used to do in the olden days no porta crib then) lol My prayers go out to the rest of the family. Love you and miss you Aunt Josie Beth Vice (Helens daughter)
