SIOUX CITY -- Violet M. Wilcox, 81, of Sioux City, beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother, entered into the glory of her eternal life on Friday, April 1, 2011, at Touchstone Living Center surrounded by her loving family.

Violet was born Aug. 29, 1929, in Clarinda, Iowa, to Faye E. and Effie B. (Adams) Squires. She enjoyed crocheting, attending church services and, most of all, spending time with family. Life was full of delicate, humorous and caring conversations. Her strength was immeasurable. She will be greatly missed by all those fortunate to have known her.
