Josephine was born in the Providence of Cosenza, Italy on February 7, 1933 and was the daughter of the late Francesco “Frank” Cucunato and Raffaela (Mirabelli) Cucunato.
She was employed with AMC/Chrysler Corporation for 17 years, retiring in 1989.
Josephine was a devoted mother and nana who loved spending time with her children and grandchildren. She was blessed with a life, filled with loving friendships.
She was a faithful member of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Mount Carmel Ladies Society. Josephine was also a member of the Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC) which was an organization close to her heart and the U.A.W. Local #72 Retirees. She enjoyed gardening and growing flowers.
Josephine is survived by her three children, Mark J. Travis of Kenosha, Dianna M. (Jim) Repetti of Wauwatosa, Robert C. “Robby” (Amy) Travis of California; her brothers, Santo Cucunato of Kenosha, Charles “Chuck” Cucunato of California and Paul (Patt) Cucunato of New Berlin; five grandchildren, Cristina and Emily Repetti, Jacob, Sydney and Samuel Travis, and many loving nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Lisa Marie Travis, her sister Theresa Saliere, and sisters-in-law, Donna Cucunato and Jackie Trombino.
Mark, Dianna, and Robby would like to thank all of the family and friends that helped our mom throughout the years. There are not enough words to express how much that means to us.
