Dear Jack and family. It's Kathy, Alan's sister, here. I am so sad to learn that Violet has left us. I only had a chance to meet her a few times. But she left a wonderful impression! So sweet and warm, and outgoing! I will always remember the incredible hug she gave me at our Mom's burial. It was a "knowing" hug; she knew exactly what I was feeling and it comforted me. I'm sure you all know that hug, too. Take care of each other. I wish you peace and a ton of wonderful memories to help you through.

Jack and family. I was so sad to hear of Violet’s passing. She truly was, without a doubt, the most amazing and loving person I have ever had the pleasure to know. Violet was so much like her mom, I can remember many years ago when she lived on Main Street in Fredericton and her mom would come to town for a visit. We always got together and played many games of cards. Her legacy lives on Jack.

Dear Jack and all of your families: it is sad to know your Vi has gone. She certainly will form a void in your lives. I met Vi in 1970 working side by side in our company-employers. No matter when we met, Vi always had a smile and a great outlook on life. The last we all danced together was at Station Rd whereby the Maunders provided the music. May all of you hold precious fun memories you have with Vi in your hearts forever.

Hello Jack. We are very sorry to read of Violet's passing. Our deepest condolences are sent to you and your family. You may not remember us but when you and Violet lived on Waggoner's Lane years ago, Wayne and I would babysit for you while you and Violet went out. We were only dating then, and will be married 55 years in October, but we've always kept you both in our memories. At that time, your only daughter you had was Shelly. These are good memories of you and Violet at the time. You also worked with my dad, Aubrey Price at the Coca Cola Plant. We are very sorry to hear youve' lost your lovely Violet, may all your special memories keep her forever in your heart.
Sincerely, Jackie (Price) and Wayne Grant

She was a special lady and brought a smile everytime I crossed paths with her. My Mom, Carol, will miss her deeply. They shared many great times. I know it was a special friendship in the way my Mom spoke about her and in how she barely left Violet's side in her finally moments on this earth!
