    I was a friend of Josie's in high school. I remember her being a happy-go-lucky kind of gal :-) I am so very sorry the loss of this beautiful woman, so young, so vibrant and full of life. I am saddened she is gone way too soon :-( God bless all of her family and friends as they learn to live life without her presence.

    I knew Josie as "PenaltyBoxBabe" on a sports streaming site where we were both chat moderators. She and I were close because we both had/have long term chronic illnesses. We shared many a joke and enjoyed our time together. I never met her physically, we were just soul sisters. She is missed by many.

    I too only new Josie through the sports site, but we often exchanged the odd private message. Whenever I saw that Penalty Box Babe was online it brought a smile to my face, she was loads of fun & she will be missed by many. R.I.P. PBB, Gurney Halleckxxx

    I knew Josie through a sports site. She added me to a hockey pool last year w/ her and her brother. I had become incredibly close with Josie as we had common battles when it came to health. I was always there to listen and she was always there to listen to me. She helped me through a lot and we used to watch Hockey and reality shows *hockey wives* together/online. i considered her an incredibly close friend and told her I'd send her kinder products somehow over the holidays. My heart absolutely breaks. She was incredible. My condolences to the family, she always talked about how great and supportive y'all were. Take care.
