    My sincere condolences to the family of this dear sweet lady. However, I know your precious memories will forever keep her lovingly near, even as she is gone. I will always remember our conversations and exchange of letters for a time, and how she loved my book of poetry. A kinder, more thoughtful, peaceful person would be hard to come by. I know mom (Almond) sure thought the world of you, Violet. Hopefully you are both together now, singing with your angel friends. While your well earned wings have flown you into everlasting light, your memory will live forever in the hearts and minds of all whose lives your touched so dearly throughout your life journey.

    Sending sincerest condolences to the family of this wonderful lady. I knew Violet from growing up in Southern Bay. I always knew her to be hardworking, smiling and friendly to everyone she met. We rekindled our friendship a few years ago and exchanged cards at Christmas. I still have the angel magnet on my fridge that she sent me. Little did she know how much that angel meant to me and still brings me pleasant thoughts of this wonderful lady. I’m so happy that our Lord blessed her with longevity and that her family loved her through the years. To all her family please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. HUGS.
