To the Family,
It has only been shortly over a year since the Bean and Williams families were joined together by the marriage of Anita and Jason, but Ms. Violet was as dear to us as if we had known her all our lives. She was such a beacon of light and joy. I personally enjoyed her company very much. She will be sorely missed. We extend our deepest sympathies to the family-especially Janice, Jason and Anita.
We love you and continue to pray for your healing at this time.

I will truly miss our sister in Christ at the Hampton Musician and Organist Guild. What a beautiful name for a beautiful person, "Violet". God bless each family member. If I can be of any help, please do not hesitate to call me.

To the Williams Family,
On behalf of the McMillian Family we send our condolences to each and every one of you. When I read about the passing of your mother memories started to run in my head regarding the times that we had at Messiah Baptist Church,singing in the choir and Mrs. Gray playing for us. She has touch so many people with her music and words of wisdom. May God bless each and everyone of you.
