To Kevin and Wendy and Sisters and Brothers of Dear Violet. We are very saddened to learn of Violet's passing away. We were and always will be friends of Violet and George. We spent many hours with them in Indianapolis. We had a very special friendship with them and had so much fun. Life changes everything and we lost our close relationship, but always held them in our heart. We know we will see them again in heaven before very long. We send our love and prayers to all of you, what a wonderful person Violet was.
