Josephine Rose Jeffries

Josephine (Adolph) Jeffries (1926-2123) departed for her eagerly awaited Final Journey on February 11, 2023.
Preceded in death by husband Otis, son Richard Paul, daughter Theresa, and brother Ralph Adolph.
She was a graduate of South High School and before marriage worked for Nationwide Insurance. She later worked for many years at the Lazarus Westland store. She was a founding member and longtime volunteer at St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church. As an original resident of Georgian Heights, she was active in the Civic Association.
Her family will remember her as a prolific seamstress, a frugal housewife, an admirable cook, and the mortal nemesis of all dirt. The only way she could stop eating all the chocolate was to eat all the chocolate. She was generous to all but herself.
Surviving family are: daughters Elizabeth (Larry Cunningham), Karen Tachi (Masato), daughter-in-law Trish (Brad Bivens), son-in-law Ronald Powell, Grandchildren Deanna Aguilar (Heri), Christian and Allison Fala, great-grandchildren Wesley, Reina, Faith Rose and Athena, nieces and nephew.
