One beautiful lady; whenever we visited, she treated us like we were her children. And she made the best cherry pie. God bless you Aunt Josephine

I will be saying a rosary this evening for my favorite Aunt, aunt Josephine. I am still sad that I could not attend the funeral in person.

Dear Aunt Josephine
I will always remember your kindness and hospitality; whenever we made the trip from Brooklyn to Connecticut, we knew we were in for a good time with all the Corso family.
You made me the best cherry pie one summer, and when we came by a few years later, you remembered how I loved it, and there it was freshly made once more. You leave behind a wonderful family, fond memories and a century of Love and goodwill.
We will miss you and pray that you reside near the altar of the Lord our God, eternally.
Pax Tecum,
Jerome

I will always remember Mrs. Corso for her kindness and hospitality, her sparkle, and her sense of humor. And, I have to say, for her delicious food and beautiful sweaters!

I met Josephine and Ralph over 15 years ago at seniors. They were the sweetest couple. From day one they always gave me a hug and Josephine always told me she loved me. We kept in touch even after they didn't go to seniors anymore. This year I was amazed when I got her Christmas card. It was still in her own handwriting. Heaven has a new angel but we lost our angel on earth.

Josephine was the most gracious and caring lady . She cared about everyone she knew. I have missed seeing her at the senior center and visiting her at her house. It was a privilege and a blessing to know her.
