With solemn reverence, we commemorate Josephine Tomlinson of Temple, Texas, whose life came to an end on January 31, 2025 at the age of 96, leaving behind cherished memories. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Josephine Tomlinson to show support.

In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Josephine had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Josephine may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

She was predeceased by: her parents, George W. Lee and Alwine Jacobs; and her husband Truett Tomlinson. She is survived by: her daughter Rena Blackstock (Paul Blackstock) of Temple; her granddaughters, Julie Blackstock of Plano and Joya Elam (Michael Elam) of Denton; and her great grandchildren, Maike and Noah.

Visitation was held on Saturday, February 8th 2025 from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Scanio-Harper Funeral Home (3110 Airport Rd, Temple, TX 76504). A funeral service was held on Saturday, February 8th 2025 at 3:00 PM at the same location.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to Pearl's Place of Temple, a sanctuary for senior and special-needs dogs. Contributions can be made online at https://pearlsplaceusa.com.

Beatrice Bilek wrote a sympathy message

“My sincere condolences to the Tomlinson family. Josephine will be missed. “Grandma and Grandpa” Tomlinson, Truett and Josephine, and Jackie all helped my mother, Gladys Stehle, welcome me into this world while my dad, Walter Stehle, was serving our country in Germany during WWII. Conversations and visits with them will always be fondly remembered. Beatrice Janet Stehle Bilek”
