Those who wish to join the immediate family in paying their final respects at Josie’s graveside may join the procession from the chapel to the interment site at All Souls Cemetery shortly after 12 noon. Josie wished that those who attend wear navy, gray, or brown in her honor instead of the traditional black.

In lieu of flowers, Josie’s family is collecting donations for the American Cancer Society Road to Recovery program in her memory. Donations can be made at https://gofund.me/5ed21383. Sympathy cards can be sent to her son, Julian Banez, at 1108 Evelyn Lane, Apt D, Sacramento, CA 95864.

Due to the ongoing restrictions related to COVID-19 pandemic, there will be no reception after the interment ceremony. The family will resume the 9-day Novena on Monday, September 27, 2021, through Thursday, October 7, 2021, to conclude the first 40 days after Josie’s passing.
