Violet enjoyed being a Nurse for over 51 years. From working in the ER, and hospitals, to caring for the elderly at Nursing homes towards the end of her career as a Medicare, Medicade Officer.
Violet enjoyed the beauty in life with her flower arrangements, and the plants on her back porch. She loved shoping and antiquing, she loved and supported (tolerated) drag racing, because that's what her husband R.D. and son Ronny loved doing.  She enjoyed Going to car shows and competing with their 1967 Pontiac GTO.  Mostly she enjoyed time with her family, holidays and get togethers along with monthly Market Days with her sisters and brother at her booth in Wimberley TX, selling her beautiful arrangements she would make in her garage.  Violet was a caring compassionate soul who would bring a smile to anyone's face, along with kind words of support and advice.  She loved her animals.  They were family to her, she treated them as if they were her furry little children. She loved life and the lord. She donated to several Catholic charities among other non-profits to the betterment of humanity.
