My classmates and colleagues would tease me and say my mantra should be "I want to be like Mike". I always tried to follow his example.

Mike was a younger cousin of mine. I spent many good times as a young child at Aunt Em &!Uncle Jack´s home. As we grew up, I admired him from afar! He reached for the stars and found them here on earth! He can now enjoy them up close! RIP

Just learned of the loss of Mr. Viollt. Thoughts and prayers to Kathy and family. He was a wonderful man and such a charismatic leader. He will always have a special place in my heart for his confidence in me and RMU memories.

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Viollts passing. I had the privilege of getting to know him a bit during his brave battle with cancer. He was always generous, kind, wise and patient throughout his many appointments with healthcare. Although I didn´t know him well, I know he continued to help those in need, even when he was suffering. He was truly "a prince among men". My condolences to his wife and children during this time.

I was a student and employee under President Viollt for over 10 years. I'll always remember he would call me "Mo." He was a great leader who always made sure we took pride in our College/University. He will be missed.

My sincere condolences to all of the family. I worked with Mike at RMU for about 15 years and it was such an honor. He was such an inspirational leader! Rest in peace Mike. God bless the family.

I never had the fortune to meet Mike. Yet, through countless accounts from his close friend/my brother, I understand that his friendship, vision and generosity were only exceeded by his loyalty. Through these accounts I am sure that he will be missed by many.
