After graduating from Victoria High School, Josie began working as a cashier at the lunch counter for Walgreens at the Town Plaza Mall. During her career with Walgreens she advanced to bookkeeper for the drug store and served with them for over 30 years retiring in 2011. Josie enjoyed her time serving the Victoria community.
