Vi was my co-worker at Sears . Loved by everyone. The last time I saw her she was shopping for flowers in the garden department of Menards. Always a warm smile for everyone. I still wear a shell necklace given to me by her when she returned from Hawaii. Very sorry for your loss .

Vi was a very nice lady, I worked with her and Mary in the jewelry Dept. for several years. She taught me a lot about the Dept. I remember her husband Raymond coming to the jewelry counter with little Raymond they would talk about going fishing how he helped grandpa. Sometimes Vi's husband would come in to have lunch with her at the snack bar. She would tell me about her trips she took with Mary, I was so surprised at the trips these two ladies went on. I'm so sorry for your loss, and will keep her and her family in my prayers during this vey sad time! God bless..

I worked many years with Vi at Venture, I was amazed at her knowledge of the jewelry she sold. It was always Vi and Mary manning the counter. She was always pleasant. My condolences to her family. Michele Burton Tucker, lead cashier at Venture.

Vi and my grandma, Mary Garland, were co-workers, friends and travelling partners. They travelled & had many adventures together to Europe and Hawaii, They also came to visit me and my daughter when we lived in Ontario, Canada, and from there we went to Niagara Falls. ( I could barely keep up with them.) Vi was a lovely person to my grandma and my family. At age 84, she drove out to Taylor Ridge, to attend my daughter's wedding shower, what a kind heart and full of adventure. Blessings for your family, I am sorry you are hurting.

Thank you. She was a wonderful woman. I found a picture from their trip to Hawaii both were in hulu skirts dancing on the beach.

I remember Mary.. I have a picture of her and my grandma in front of the Hummel factory when they came to Germany to visit us. I always considered her another grandmother. Thank you for sharing your memories of grandma, she is missed very much.
