Obituary for Violet MacLachlan
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Violet MacLachlan in Winnipeg on November 3, 2020, at the age of 98 years.
Violet was predeceased by her husband Douglas A. MacLachlan, son Douglas L. MacLachlan and daughter Joy MacLachlan
Violet will be sadly missed by her daughter Helen (Bruce), and her many grandchildren who were her life, Jennifer, Derek, Sarah, Cameron, Leonard, Michael, and Christine. She also was so happy to have her great-grandchildren, Kyus, Charlotte, Mason, and newly born Halle. She will also be missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
Violet led a long full life and cherished all her family dearly. She loved spending time with her family and friends and was always talking up a storm with lots of great stories of her past, she had an incredible memory too! She was a strong, feisty, independent woman but had a softer caring side for her loved ones. She also loved flowers and her gardens and definitely had a green thumb. She was an amazing cook, always creating delicious meals for her family with lots of her traditional Polish dishes. Violet loved nature and loved going for walks when she could in Assiniboine Park and especially used to love the old flower Conservatory in Winnipeg.
She will be missed my many, but her stories and memories will live on.
There will not be any service for Violet at this time, but hopefully in the summer the family can gather to celebrate her life.
Those who wish, may make a donation to the Winnipeg Grace Hospital Foundation.
