About Josie

Meet Parish Business Administrator, Josie Kleypas, who has been on the staff at SVdP since the parish began in the fall of 1995. At that time she assisted then pastor, Bishop Danny Garcia, with all of the planning and organizing of the parish during the summer months of 1995, leading up to the first Mass celebrated at Deerpark Middle School that August 13. In fact, her first office was in the downstairs of the Rectory!

Josie grew up in the very small Central Texas town of Westphalia, the youngest of ten children. The majority of her very large family all still live in or near Westphalia!

She and her husband Paul have been married for over 38 years and have two sons.  Zack is a Middle School Principal in Pflugerville ISD, and he and his wife Kayla, will be married at SVDP Parish.  Spencer graduated from Southwestern University this past August and is currently pursuing options in his new field of study.

While you may hear Josie sharing stories of her many years at SVdP Parish or how much she still loves coming to work every day, all very true, her family and spending time with them brings her great joy and is more important than anything! She and Paul have one granddaughter, Maddie and 2 grandsons, Jaxson & Easton.  They are the light of their lives!

While Josie will admit that her work keeps her pretty busy, she still finds plenty of time to spend with family and friends, enjoys working in the yard and takeing short road trips
