Josephine Scholl Obituary
She was born on July 9, 1928 in Laredo, Texas to Macari and George Gingrich.
Josephine was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. A devout Christian, her inspiration was Jesus Christ – and so she loved everyone and always treated others with love and respect as He taught us. Her special memories included going on vacations with all of her children. Her favorite places to be were wherever her children and grandchildren were.
She and her husband, Frank Scholl, enjoyed 60 years of happiness together before he passed away in 2015. She was also preceded in death by one daughter, Elizabeth Scholl, one son, Richard David Scholl and a sister, Alice Gingrich.
Josephine is survived by her children, Harold Lee Scholl, Sr. (Peggy) of Richmond, Texas, Cynthia Marie (Kelly) Byrne of Anchorage, Alaska, Joseph Andrew (Elizabeth) Scholl of Houston, Texas, and Steven (Yulia) Scholl of Pearland, Texas; seven grandchildren, Harold Lee Scholl, Jr. (Meghan) of Edmond, Oklahoma, Aaron Phillip (Jennifer) Scholl of Midland, Texas, Melanie Diane Scholl of Richmond, Texas, Merrill Grove of Alaska, Franklin Byrne of Alaska, Jennifer Lynn Scholl of Houston, Texas, and Galena Scholl of Pearland, Texas; nine great-grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Betty Ann McLean of New Braunfels, Texas and two brothers-in-law, Madison (Janet) Scholl of Round Rock, Texas and Merton (Linda) Scholl of Corpus Christi, Texas.

Josie, you were the sweetest of all Mother-in-laws!
Yesterday , I saw the saying My Mother In-love and it hit home! It described who you are to me. I will miss our Sunday Fundays! We were always so happy when we were blessed with great weather because we knew how happy you would feel to have lunch dates with us. May you dance in heaven reunited with all your loved ones.
