OUR AUNT JOSEPHINE REMEMBERED WITH SO MUCH LOVE
"Josephine was the sister of Saturno D'Arpini, my father-in-law. At the time of her death, she was the oldest member of St. Joseph Church in Monroe. I had the pleasure of attending one Christmas Eve service when she carried the symbolic Baby Jesus up to the Alter. Only the oldest living member of the church had the privilege to do this each Christmas Eve service. Oh, how special, Josephine could barely walk. It took her a while to reach the front, had to hold on to her son, but what pride she showed to be honored to do that. Josephine was a small tiny lady, and was loved by all who knew her.
Later on, her great grandson Bronco McKart, would become a World Boxing Champion. He also was my mother's great nephew. Robert and I always had to figure out how everyone was related, we just said double cousins for everyone.
Dear Josephine, you were an angel on earth, I know you are one of Heaven's Finest. REST IN PEACE."
