I met Viola when she was first diagnosed at Medstar. I was the section chief for PET/CT. We often talked before and after my retirement last year. Viola was a wonderful with a beautiful sense of humor. We were both Aries with my bithday the day after hers. I have really had her on my mind and had called her cell several times especially around her birthday. We had talked in February about getting together. I found this tonight on the internet and I'm beyond sad. In my heart I knew it probably had occurred since I had been unable to contact her.
My heart goes out to the family. We always ranked about our families. When I retired she brought me a little musical christmas tree. I will always think of her when I see that tree. It has a place in my dining room year round. I wish I had been able to attend her services.
Blessings to all
Jeff O'Neil
