Biloxi Herald on 16 Jan 1892
Miss Josephine, the bright and accomplished daughter of Lazaro and Julia Lopez, died
in Biloxi last Sunday, after a prolonged illness, the cause of her death being that
dread disease, consumption. While the death of this young girl was not unexpected
the absence of her loving smile and gentle presence are the less sadly missed in the
home circle, which is now experiencing a sorrow which time alone can heal. Every
mortal must pass Gethsemane's dark garden of sorrow; all must sleep the dreamless
sleep; but upon the shadowy shores of death the sea of trouble casts no wave; eyes
that have been curtained by the everlasting dark will never again know the touch of
tears; lips that have been hushed by the eternal silence will never suffer another
word of grief; hearts of dust do not break, the dead do not weep. At the time of her
death Miss Josephine was 19 years, 7 months and 6 days of age, and was the eldest
daughter. The remains were interred in the cemetery here on Monday afternoon and
were followed to their final resting place by a large number of friends. The Herald
extends to the bereaved family its sincerest sympathy."


Additional Comments:
Josephine was the daughter of Lazaro Lopez (1850-1903) and Julia Dulion (1857-1918).
