Josie was one of my bestfriend, she was like a sister. I remembered one time I started to cry and she was right beside me, helping me and hugging me. I can’t believe that someone like her, had too go through something like that. I am so sorry josie, that I didn’t even say goodbye, but one day we will be reunited and I will give you the biggest hug, I love you so much.

She was one of my best friends, I never thought that such a sweet girl could have such a terrible accident. I remember in 6th grade when her and I switch spots in the classroom to trick the teacher, and we started laughing a lot.. I miss her very much.

Josie was in my 7th grade Language Arts/History class last year. She was an amazing student who was always smiling and kind to everyone. She was always reading! Her love for reading transferred into her writing and she was an awesome storyteller. Her love for her family was obvious and I can only imagine how great of a big sister she was to her siblings. My heart goes out to her family and friends. I was blessed to know her and will never forget her sweet voice and smile. Praying for you all.
