While our mother Josefina has departed from this world, her spirit will forever be woven into the hearts and lives of all those she touched. May her memory be a blessing, and may her legacy continue to inspire creativity and love in all who knew her.

Rest in peace, our beautiful mother. Your needle may be at rest, but the love you stitched into our lives will remain forever.
