In her working years, she worked at Stokleys and Tony Downs. After her mother's passing, she moved to an acreage where she enjoyed gardening and tending to plants and flowers. She always had special chickens and dogs.  She stayed there until her health deemed it necessary to move to the Manor at Truman Senior Living 4 years ago.  There, she filled her time doing jigsaw puzzles.  She as well as her family enjoyed the staff at the Manor, they always brought a smile to her face.   Violet is survived by her sister-in-law, Elaine Wiederhoft; brother-in-law, Art Loeschen; nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, all who loved her very much.                   She is preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Alvin, Delbert, Arvin and Eldon; sisters, Irene Peets and Linda Loeschen.
