I had the great pleasure of meeting Mrs. Viola in 1999 when she was a volunteer at Wayne Memorial Hospital. This woman never knew a stranger and extended the same grace and kindness to every single person. To know her was to love her and also to be loved. I sure wish there were more Mrs. Viola's in the world, but there was truly only one Mrs. Viola. Love to Mrs. Dorthy and the rest of the family.
To Dorthy and Family on behalf of myself and my siblings please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your (our) wonderful Mother. She will forever be loved and missed. She blessed our lives with her caring and loving ways. Thank you for sharing her with us.

Dorthy and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Viola's passing. I always enjoyed seeing her when she would come by for a visit and it was always fun to hear her call me "Mrs. Jones." She was a precious lady and I know you will miss her, but you were blessed to have her for so many years and I know you took very good care of her. RIP Mrs. Jones.
Aunt Viola was the most graceful, humble aunt. She was the first and only aunt that would call me by my real name she did not like nicknames. She took me to the lake a place I had never been as a child. She said there was always a better way. “Well” Was a word she would say , followed by “To God Be The Glory “. Rest on aunty. The angels have another one now. The last of the best. Your niece Yvonne Williams
