March 31, 1932 – July 23, 2012
at the age of 80 years
It is with great sadness and many tears that we announce the passing of Violet Louise Nicholls. Violet passed away at Shuswap Lake General Hospital on July 23, 2012.
She is survived by her loving husband of 58 years, Walter, and her three children, Cathy Comeau (Bernie), David Nicholls, and Susan Pratt (Ira). Violet also leaves behind her brother Arthur (Eleanor) and sister Mary. She also had four grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren.
Violet was born and raised in Hammond and moved to Kamloops as a young mom in 1960. The family lived in Rayleigh for 21 years before retiring to sunny Blind Bay and then moving on to Salmon Arm in 2006. She loved gardening and making preserves from her garden’s bounty. She will be missed.
As per her wishes, Violet will be cremated and there will be no service. In lieu of fl owers, memorial
donations may be made to the BC Children’s Hospital.
I was one of Vi’s community care aides and I am so sorry to hear of her death. I really enjoyed our little visits each week. May you find some comfort in remembering the good times. Eliza
