Josie was born in Utrecht, The Netherlands to Johan and Josina Pilaar on February 10, 1938. She came to the United States in 1948 where she met John and his family and they eventually married and celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary this year. Together they built a home in North Haledon, NJ where they lived for 27 years and raised their children. They also built a vacation home in Cape Cod, MA where they retired in 1996 and lived for 23 years before moving back to NJ to be closer to their children. The years in Cape Cod brought many happy memories and family vacations. Josie was an avid gardener and enjoyed clamming, going to the beach and building sand castles with her grandchildren. Josie was a loving, caring and a special person to everyone who knew her. She loved her family very much and enjoyed the years of family gatherings and celebrations. A family celebration of Josie will be held at a later time. Her family requests in lieu of flowers donations be made in her memory to Brewster Baptist Church, 1848 Main St., Rte. 6A Brewster, MA 02631 https://brewsterbaptistchurch.ccbchurch.com/goto/giving
