BROOKS, Viola – Peacefully Vi set her knitting needles down for the last time on Sunday January 6, in her 81st year at Bridge Hospice in Warkworth. Beloved wife and best friend to Scott for 59 years. Loving mother of Kathy (Joe) and Nancy (John). Grandmother to 7, great grandmother to 13, and aunt to many nieces and nephews. In memory of Viola, and as an expression of sympathy, donations to the Bridge Hospice in Warkworth would be appreciated by the family. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
