I also knew Josie through the clog dancing group that she directed. Josie was patient and good humored but firm, whether she was teaching adults, teenagers or children. We all loved her and I will always remember her smile and the fun we had.

You will be missed Aunt Jo with that beautiful smile and silly giggle. I can't ever remember you without that smile even when fighting cancer you were always positive and smiling, but that is the LaDuca way.

Josie taught my son and niece to clog dance and had infinite patience with her students. Her husband, Dale, would set up the equipment for us. They were both such nice people. Josie touched so many people's lives and I am so sorry for everyone's loss. Peace and blessings to her family.
