I was blessed to have Vi as my next door neighbor for a brief number of years. We always enjoyed a wonderful time together. Vi was a beautiful, sweet and fun loving lady. She loved her family whole hearted. She was adored and loved by her family and many friends. I will always remember her Italian home baked pizzeles and her pretty manicured hands.
Love you Vi!!
Prayers and condolences for Lydia, Earl and family and friends 🙏
Rest in peace sweet friend 💕

My deepest condolences to Tom, Linda. Lydia, Earl, the grandchildren, and nieces (Fran, Sarah, Rose) and nephews of Viola. Vi was my second mother growing up and I learned many important life lessons from her. Her sister, Rose, was my step-mother and the love they shared for each other was an inspiration.  So many memories of them laughing like schoolgirls. May we all have such a love of life. God bless Viola and her whole family.
