It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Josie. She was predeceased by her husband Vince on July 11, 1990.

Josie is survived by her children Suzanne (Jim), Kathy (Gerry), Paul (Debbie), Agnes (Doug) and Mike (Lori), as well as 16 grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, and 10 step-grandchildren.

Josie was born in Wilkie, Saskatchewan. She and Vince moved to Powell River in 1948.

Josie was an active member of the Catholic church and well-loved for her sense of humour, cheerfulness and willingness to help out. She enjoyed gardening, quilting, crocheting, embroidery and raising chickens and geese.

A special thanks to the staff when mom was at Olive Devaud Residence and to staff at Evergreen Care Unit for the love you showered on her.

A funeral mass was held for family and friends on Friday, June 9.

Donations can be made to Powell River Stroke Recovery Club and/or to the Catholic Women's League.
