I just loved Josie. She worked for my Grand Daddy at Cross Lumber Company for many years. I worked with her the Summer before my Senior year and after school my Senior year at VHS. She was the sweetest, kindest spoken person that I ever knew. Even if she was a bit frustrated, which seldom happened, she still spoke in that precious angelic voice. I always wanted to work in an office setting & she was very helpful in training me for that. My heart goes out to all of y’all.
