She was born October 11, 1926, in Lee Center, the youngest daughter of the late Joseph and Anna Wistowska Zmudowski. Josephine was united in marriage to William C.

She was formerly employed with Williams and Graves Insurance and retired from Rowland, Bellinger and Comstock. Josephine loved working in her flower and vegetable gardens and could name any plant or flower.

She was predeceased by her sisters, Helen and Steph; and brothers, Anthony, Edward and William and their spouses. The family would like to express a special thank you to Carol Morrill and Connie Conover for all the care and compassion you have given to both Mom and Dad, all the wonderful ladies from Independence Care, and the Staff of 3 East at Rome Memorial Residential Health Care Facility.
