He leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and compassion that will forever be cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing him. The family warmly welcomes all those who had the privilege of knowing Josie to join them in celebrating his life at his Funeral Mass.

Beloved Husband, Devoted Father
Josie was a loved and loving husband to Anita, a devoted father to Kirsty, Kieren, and Katrina, and a cherished papa to Lola-Rose, Shay, and Saskia. His unwavering love and support enriched the lives of his family, and his memory will continue to inspire them each day. In addition to his family, Josie was a special brother to Charlie, and although preceded in death by John, Eddie, and Con, their bond continues to live on in cherished memories. Josie was also a great friend to many, touching the lives of those around him with his warmth and generosity.
Honoring Josie’s Life
The Funeral Mass, to which all who knew Josie are welcome, will be held at St. Fillan’s R.C. Church in Crieff on Thursday, 7th March at 11:00 am. Following the Mass, Josie will be laid to rest at Crieff Cemetery, with the cortège arriving at 12:20 pm.
Traditional black funeral attire is unnecessary, as Josie’s family encourages attendees to celebrate his vibrant spirit by wearing colors that reflect his joyful personality. In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes donations to Action on Asbestos and Cornhill Macmillan Centre, organizations that were close to Josie’s heart.
A Lasting Legacy
Josie Connaghan’s presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His kindness, compassion, and unwavering love have left an indelible mark on the hearts of those he touched. Though he may no longer be with us in body, his spirit will live on forever in the memories of those who had the privilege of knowing him. May he rest in peace, knowing he was dearly loved and will be forever remembered.
