After having their children, Jo and Tom moved to South Plainfield, NJ. In later years they lived in Charleston, SC, finally settling in Cedarburg in 2010. They had many happy years living the "snow bird" life at their condo in Myrtle Beach, SC in Winter as well.
Josephine was a parishioner of St. Francis Borgia Parish in Cedarburg. She was a part of the knitting ministry where she made hats and blankets. She enjoyed spending time outside, tending to her garden and loved watching the hummingbirds and butterflies.
