Josephine was an inspiration to all. As Treasurer of IAC she donated thousands of hours of volunteer time to promote Italian traditions. As a family friend for decades, she has a special place in our hearts.

Our sympathy to her family at this sad time of the loss of this wonderful lady. We are proud to have known dear Josephine.

With love and prayers,
Lucy Giardino and Lucy Cortese
