2024 at the age of 93.
Mom was born on March 31,1931 to Katherine and Henry Farworn. She was the

raised in Paul and married our dad, Forrest McCarty, on June 27,1947. Shortly
after, they moved to their forever home outside of Paul.
Momma kept busy raising us 4 kids! She liked to do gardening, and in her spare
time enjoyed embroidering. Viola was an active member in the Paul Congregational
Church, where she taught Sunday School for many years, and was church secretary
for a time. In these later years, mom was seldom without a Search A Word Puzzle
