Violet was an exceptional cook and baker and enjoyed tending to her garden and yard. She was a die-hard White Sox fan, Jeopardy aficionado, and crossword puzzler. She loved road trips and adventures, but most of all, she loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, and friends. All in all, she loved life!
