She cared deeply for everyone around her and had a special knack for complimenting others, always making people feel seen and appreciated. A lifelong Chicago White Sox fan, Josephine never missed a chance to cheer on her team, whether they were winning or not. Her fun-loving spirit, kind words, and fierce loyalty left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
