Obituary for Viola G. Wilson

Viola  G.  Wilson
Viola Garraty Wilson, of Howell, NJ entered into eternal life at age 94 on May 17, 2018.
Viola was born in Nutley, NJ then married and raised her family in Little Falls before moving to Howell in 1990.
Prior to being a homemaker, Viola was a keypunch operator at Hoffman-La Roche Inc. After raising her children, she returned to the workforce and was employed as a Health Claims Supervisor for Prudential Insurance Company for many years. She often said this was one of the best decisions of her life, because she learned so much and made many lasting friendships in the process.
Viola was thoughtful and caring and fun. Although she was a lifelong resident of NJ, she cherished her time spent in the great state of Maine, where she vacationed all of her life. She was loved by many and will be dearly missed.
Viola was predeceased by her husband, Albon T. Wilson (1997) and is survived by her 3 daughters – Barbara, Patty, and Mary Beth, her son-in-law Charles Fraser and her grand-daughter Alexandra.
