Josephine F. Galluzzo , 63, of Coplay, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, July 29, 2025, at her home, surrounded by the love of her family.

Josephine's life was a beautiful reflection of love, kindness, and generosity.

Known for her welcoming smile and giving spirit, Josephine had a heart that embraced all. She found joy in life's simple pleasures - spending sunny days at the beach, traveling with friends, sitting with her pups, and sharing laughter at the VFW. But above all, Josephine's greatest pride and happiness came from her family. She poured her heart into cooking for her loved ones, creating meals that brought everyone together around the table.
Surviving are her loving children: son Vincent A. Galluzzo and his wife Tara of Catasauqua, PA; daughter Rosali D. Galluzzo-Derkits and her husband Anthony of Coplay, PA; and son Dominick Galluzzo Jr. and his wife Kimberly of Laurys Station, PA. sister, Francesca wife of Jeffrey Hummel of Bath, PA. She was a proud and devoted mom mom to her 9 adoring grandchildren, who were her greatest treasures: Alexander, Evan, Sophia, Tianna, Dominick III, Gianna, Vierra, Lia, & Vincent Jr.. Every moment spent with them was filled with love, joy, and unforgettable memories.
Josephine's kindness, selfless nature, and strength will never be forgotten. She leaves behind a legacy of love, generosity, and a family who will forever carry her in their hearts.
