Grandma Josie

On April 3rd, Maya lost her great grandma, Josie. Daddy was lucky to have his grandma and grandpa in the same town he grew up. Grandma Josie and Grandpa Joe showered their grandchildren and great grandchildren with love. Maya was able to meet her great grandma just a couple months ago, and they shared some very special moments together.

We will all miss her wonderful, caring spirit.

Here are some photos of Josie through the years, surrounded by the people who loved her.
