We all love Josephine! She has to be one of the dearest people I know.

Josephine was an outstanding lady. One could see how blessed she was - God's love shown through her in her cheerfulness, kindness, generosity, thoughtfulness, thankfulness and in all her smiles and loving (and sometimes :) feisty) ways.

We miss her and will always remember Josephine.

Virginia Krista & Charles Hull,
and all her many friends at Ballard Green in Ridgefield, CT.

Josephine Pecchioni is the best mother-in-law that God ever created. I couldn't have been any more fortunate to have her in my life. I will miss her dearly each and every day of the rest of my time here on this Earth. I love you Mom.
