The news of Josie's passing was difficult for me to hear as I felt her loss. She is a part of my childhood. I loved this woman. I've known her since I was three. I have fond memories of her generosity towards me at sleepovers with Trish. Love radiated from her easily and naturally. Her home felt like a peaceful and comforting sanctuary, a place to take a break from the rest of the world and to enjoy the energy that Josie created and especially exuded.
I always looked forward to Josie's meals not just because of her mastery in the kitchen but also because she prepared food for her family mindfully and with a lot of love. Anything she gave you was infused with the energy of her open heart. One could taste the love in each bite.
Anthony and Trish, as you grieve and get through this difficult time, May God ease your pain with the love that surrounded your mom and the prayers sent your family's way.
May God Bless this kind and generous woman and may Heaven open it's heart and welcome Josie with love as she did so many times for me.
Love,
Faridih
