She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by her loving sisters, Mary Martin (Kenneth Nardi), Lucy Mancuso, Bettina McCaa (Roy); brothers, Tony Martin (Karen), Pat Martin (Varsi), Wayne Morgan (Maea); nieces, Kimberly Hood, Micayla Mancuso, Donnie Morgan, Amber Smith (Chris), Sherry Walker (JD); nephews, Michael Hood (Jaime), Bryce Martin, Tony Martin (Cathy), Michael Martin (Angela), Patrick Martin (Rose), Lennie Morgan (Laurie), Audie Morgan, Robert McCaa (Karen); great nephews, Dylan, Ryan, Julian, Tony, Mikie, Kenny, Sammy, Cole, Joshua, Brendan, Christopher, Jaxsen, Harrison, Jay & Grant; great nieces, Taylor, Miele, Katarina, Melina, Whitley, Allie, Stacey, Jennifer, Samantha; great-great nieces, McKenzie, Violet; great-great nephew, Jaryn; and Bentley (her beloved great nephew fur baby).

Josie never met a stranger and always had a smile and a gift of either a keychain, bracelet or necklace she had made for everyone!

Many special thanks and gratitude to "Hospice Family Care" Angela, Blanca, Anna, Taylor, Albert, Ron & Terry and to "Dependable Health Services" Pam & Minnie for the care and love they provided to our loving Josie.
