James Thomas Violet

Driving through Dayton Ohio as I am today Can´t help but recall Jim as an intern from Kansas in 1974 I think. I was a RX tech, and all us young girls from POH Pontiac Mich Thought he was the best looking of the batch( hehe ) The nicest intern of the batch. So sorry to read of his passing. My condolences to you.

I´m late to this as well but Dr. Violet was my doctor when I was in highschool. He was funny and told it to you straight. He will be missed. He left a memory I´ll never forget!

Late to this but Doc V made a huge impact on my life when I was a young coach. So kind ! Thanks Doc for saving me and helping me walk again. TB

Darlene and family,

Condolences to family. Dr. violet operated on my sons and made their injuries good again. . . My husband, Coach Mo Tipton, really thought the world of him and always trusted him operating on his athletes. He will be missed. . . Suzanne Tipton

Dear Violet Family,
It was a great blessing to have known Dr. Violet. As a nurse caring for his patients, I can tell you he was a rare bird and we enjoyed every minute we spent with him. He had a way of brightening our mornings after a long night shift. He would come to the unit with some wacky tie on and it always had an interesting story behind it. He usually had a funny dog story or a deer tale that occurred around his home. We enjoyed driving by the home to see the Christmas lights that he took such pride in. His resting time has come. God bless and comfort you all.

"But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep." (1 Thessalonians 4: 13-14, ESV)

Peace be With You,

God bless Darlene and family. I worked with Dr Violet at Drs hosp and Affinity med center. He was a great man and surgeon. I will always remember the conversations we had. He will be missed RIP Dr Violet you're legacy will live on through you're family

Mrs. Violet you have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your husband. I worked on the Surgical Unit & Same Day Surgery at the former Drs. Hospital. He was a very nice man & great Doctor. Bless you & your family at this time of sadness & sorrow. Respectively yours,

Dr Violet treated my son for a football injury. I remember hm to be a very caring and compassionate fine doctor. May his family find solace in their memories. I have had the pleasure of knowing his mother, Thelma Violet, she is a wonderful graceful lady and I think he inherited her kindness.

I was quarterback and Jim was center in highschool. Jim blocked and protected me as I believe he did for many people in his life. A caring person who I remembered growing up with in Mechanicsburg, OH.

I will never forget how kind and compassionate
Dr. Violet was to my elderly mother when she visited him at his office about her surgical needs. He explained her situation with warmth and clarity so that she understood.
Darlene and children: I am so very sorry about your loss. May Dr Violet's memory never be forgotten.

I am very sorry to hear of Jim's death. I have fond memories of him as we were classmates and friends. My best wishes to his family, my your loving memories ease your grief.

My sincere condolences to the family of Dr. Violet. Although I did not know him personally, as a high school athlete back in the 70's, I was very aware of his excellent and skilled reputation as an orthopedic surgeon. Everyone I knew that required orthopedic surgery, they were certainly comforted knowing that Dr. Violet would be taking care of them. Very sorry to learn of his passing.

He was a wonderful and knowledgeable surgeon I had the utmost respect for and was privileged to get the opportunity to work with at Aultman North Day Surgery Center. Sending healing and loving thoughts to his family during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Heidi Lansden and Family

My heart is saddened by reading this obituary. My sympathy to all the family. I can say from my heart Dr. Violet was met at the doors of Heaven by Ed and Sarah Mallett, Lou and Anita Venditti and Clem and Margaret Walent. They worked for many years with the OHSAA football North and South teams and Ohio High school Football coaches. Dr. Violet was not only highly respected but loved as well. So take heart he is joining friends who will watch over him.

Doc Violet was a great sports doctor . He always did more for the athletes that he treated. I always would look for him down at the OHSAA State Wrestling finals to shake his hand and thank him for his service to the Ohio Wrestling. A friend to all. RIP our friend.

Dr. Violet was my doctor, surgeon for many years. A real loss to the medical community. Condolences to the family from a very thankful patient.

Jim you were one special man who always knew how to make others smile, and many times, make me laugh with your witty sense of humor. When I had yours and Darlene's home listed for sale on Perry Dr, you told me several times, "make sure you tell buyers that I stay with the house." I would return the humor and say, "Doc remember I'm trying to SELL the house." I adored you and only wish you knew just how much. Everyone that knew you thought the world of you and I will repeat the well-known saying, Heaven gained another angel as that's exactly what you were here on earth, an angel. We will see each other again one day. Love and miss you,

Ruthanne & Ron

We mourn the loss of a good man and friend.
Condolences to Darlene and family who took great care of him as he had done for so many others.
