elevated vBD8V Obituary
elevated vBD8V It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Josephine in Milton, Ontario, on Wednesday, February 9, 2022 at the age of 86. Beloved wife to John for 65 years. Loving mother of Diane Taddei (Michael Brodigan) and Michelle Taddei. Cherished grandmother of Matthew (Lianne) and great grandmother to Emmi. Dear sister of Florence, Mafalda (Walter), June (Larry), and Dominic (Josie). Josephine was a kind soul who would always go to the aid of family, friends and even a stranger in need. Her infectious smile and joy for life will be missed by not only her immediate family but by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Her generosity of time and her willingness to help others was as unparalleled as her incredible baking!

Sharing in your sorrow, thinking of you and wishing I could be there
Josie was a beautiful woman, who’s smile was so bright. I will remember the times spent together in our younger days, we had so much fun. God Bless you Josie. To the family I am so sorry for your loss.
Josephine was a very helpful neighbor. She guided us through the process in settling into the community when we bought the house and moved into the community 25 years ago. May her soul rest in peace.
We sincerely hope that John her partner for so many years finds a way through this difficult time and our sincerest condolences to the family.
