To Josie's family. We have known Josie for many years as she lived next door to Doug's Aunt Esther Place on Main Street in Johnson City. Josie was such a great friend to Aunt Esther and always looked out for her. When we took Aunt Esther out for dinner, Josie was also invited. She was fun to have along with us and we enjoyed her so much.

We corresponded with her for a while after she moved to Kentucky and then one of our letters came back.

We are so sorry for your loss as Josie was a very special and fastidious lady. We hope your memories of her will help you through your grief.

You are in our thoughts,
Doug and Dona Tiffany
