Condolences
When I did not receive a Christmas this year and searched obits, there was Vi. Both Vi and Don were the BEST neighbours to my Mum and Dad, Esther and Fred Steininger. So many happy years as neighbours. So sorry to see Vi’s passing. She enriched the lives of all lucky enough to know her. All my best to Don. I hope Mummy and Vi have resumed their friendship in Heaven.
I was lucky enough to work with Vi at Kids Kastle. Vi was an absolutely wonderful lady and friend. I know how much she adored all her family and so proud of them. We have always kept in touch at Christmas and after I didn’t receive their card I was suspicious. I am so sorry. The world needs more Vi's to spread kindness and caring throughout the world. She truly was an angel in disguise. Although this comment is late in arriving please accept my condolences to the whole family on the loss of Vi & Don. I'm sure Don will be happy to have her by his side once again. An amazing couple. Jackie Clark
Such nice memories of Ron,s mum ,first time I came to Calgary with Ron she welcomed me with open arms ,so friendly,always smiling ,she made me feel right at home .rest in peace dear violet ,
My heart breaks every time I think that you are gone. Thank you for being the most amazing grandma and great grandma. I will forever cherish the memories I have and always love you. I will miss our phone calls and visits. I am so grateful to have the memories of you being at all my major life events, from youth group celebrations, graduations, wedding, and getting to be a great grandma to F. F will also miss you so much. She said you had the best toys and snacks. We miss and love you forever . Xoxo
Like everyone else who knew her, I was very saddened to hear of Auntie Vi’s passing. I was always a welcome guest in their home with fond memories between the 1970s to the late 1990s. Those memories will be cherished and our thoughts are with Uncle Don and the whole extended family.
There are no words profound enough to describe the love, happiness and warmth that seemed to radiate from you. Always smiling and always asking how you are. It truly didn't matter if you heard her voice through the phone or first walking in the door, you felt her love. Will be forever missed and your soft square peanut butter cookies.
I only had the pleasure of knowing Violet for two short years and in that time she showed me a lifetime of love, always being sure to ask Kirsten how I was doing and making sure I got a happy “hello!” When she called (almost daily) the first Christmas that Kirsten and I were together I received two hand made neck warmers curtesy of Vi that I will cherish for a lifetime along with the fond memories I have of stopping in to say hello always greeted with a smile and un conditional love. Thank you for welcoming me in to your life and family with open arms, I promise I’ll take good care of your grand baby, love you grandma!
Grandma... but she was so much more than just that. She was my best friend and my second mom. Rather than going to daycare, my sister and I would go to grandmas instead. The love I had for her was like no other. I started calling her "mom" instead of grandma because how attached I was to her. The love she put into knitting her kids, grand-kids, and great grand-kids baby blankets (I still sleep with mine 28 years later), toques, sweaters, etc... will be forever cherished. She taught us how to knit, how to cook, and most importantly how to be a loving and caring human being. You are gone but thank you for all these soft, sweet things you have left behind, in my home, in my head, and in my heart. I miss you deeply unfathomably, senselessly, and terribly. I would do anything to be able to see and talk to you again, but we're all headed for the same place anyways, you just beat me there. I love you till the end of time. I will see you again one day, but until then I will keep you close to my heart in everything that I do.
Missing you already Mom. Miss the weekly and mid-weekly phone calls. You always had a positive outlook no matter what in life. If there was saint hood for mothers you would be at the top. You will never be forgotten Mom.
Our sincere sympathy to all of you. We will always have fond thoughts of Violet and will certainly miss her.
As you recall all the sweet memories you have of her, may your hearts be comforted.
Please know that you are in our thoughts at this sad time.
Sincerely Enid & Rick
I miss you so so much mom. I can't share 54 years worth of memories on this page as it would take a library of storage. You were my sun and my everything. You said life will go on but it's so much more dimmer without you in it. I love you mom and I will see you soon. Have the rice pudding and hamburgers ready Mom! I MISS YOU!
