I will miss her beautiful smile when she came into T&C. I loved talking with her and hearing all the things she had done and was looking forward to doing. You will be greatly missed at T&C. Lots of love, Tanya & Crew

Viollet was always a great help in Capable Partners, she was involved in every program we had. When her husband Jerry was alive they both were very involved in Capable Partners and did one heck of a job. At our pheasant shoots she was a great shot and served a great lunch.
