elevated b7AFO Obituary
It is with extremely heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Giuseppina (Josie) Ricci on Sunday, November 16, 2025, at the age of 65. Born on February 1, 1960, Josie is the daughter of Maria Antonietta and Nicolangelo Serino.
She will be greatly missed by her beloved husband Carlo after 50 beautiful years together. Her greatest aspiration in life was to be a mother, and she will forever be missed by her daughters, Nicole (Phillipe) and Giulia (Brinder). She loved being a Nonna to Romeo, Isabella, and Valentina.
To know her is to love her. She is a loving mother, sister, daughter, and friend.

We would like to express our deepest condolences to the family! I met Josie for the first time at Nicole and Phillip’s wedding. She was so kind and friendly. She treated me like she has known me for ever.
She will be greatly missed by everyone!
Josie was a very lovely and a kind soul. I am very sad to hear the news of her passing. She will be missed by her many friends at Dematic. May God rest her soul in peace and give the strength to her family to deal with this loss.

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Josie. It was an honor to work alongside her, and I will always remember her dedication, kindness, and positive spirit. Josie made a lasting impact on our U.S. Payroll team and touched the lives of many colleagues in Canada.
My thoughts are with her family and friends during this difficult time.
I’m heartbroken of knowing that Josie passed away. I had a year working very close to her, talking up to 5 times in a day and not always about work. I remember when we talk about to meet someday in Miami, after working so much and so close, we deserved to meet each other, that’s what we said. I learned so much from her and she will always have a space in my heart. She was a lovely woman, and she always talked passionate about her grandchildren, I had the opportunity to see them through camera a couple times, she was always so proud of her family and now I cannot imagine how hard this has been for all of you. I send all my strength and love to the Ricci Family; Josie will be always missed and loved. She will never be forgotten.
On behalf of our entire team at Bartley Square Dental Office, please accept our deepest sympathies. We are so sorry for your loss and are thinking of you and your family during this difficult time.
Josie will be greatly missed. I will always remember her beautiful smile and sweet persona.
Our deepest condolences to Carlo, Nicole, Giulia and family.
Dear Carlo, Nicci & Giulia,
