Violet Christner Obituary

Violet June Christner

Violet June Christner, 90, was called home on December 21, 2014. She was born in Senecaville, Ohio, the daughter of William and Hazel Williams.

Violet June was a graduate of East High School. She worked as a secretary at the Showalter Upholstery Co. for 18 years. She enjoyed knitting, quilting, and gardening, but her greatest joys were her decades as a Sunday School teacher and her family.
