    Josie was the kindest and lovable lady and neighbor. I first met her when she brought her grandson over to our yard to see if we had fish in our pond, and of course to toss a rock or two. Rest with God, I hope there's chocolate in heaven Josie!!!💔

    Josie was truly one of the most beautiful souls I have ever had the pleasure of knowing! One of my mom's dearest friends for many many years... I remember whenever we went to visit, Josie had this pleasant and calm demeanor with a smile on her face, seeming to enjoy and love every minute of every day. She adored Cas and her family and she is no doubt resting in the peace she has earned with our Lord and Savior. Love you Josie♥️ Sympathy and prayers to the Dylewski family 🙏

    I was so sorry to see Josie's obituary. I met Josie, probably 25 years ago through the American Cancer Society. She was a lovely woman, one of my favorite people I've ever known. Lisa Goodrich
