Born in Tatamagouche, she was a daughter of the late Beldon and Grace (Moody) Joudrie. Viola was a great baker and cook and her work life for many years involved cooking, whether in woods camps or restaurants. She was a hard worker which included planting trees, raking blueberries and making Christmas wreaths that were sent to many places including Scotland. She was a volunteer at Willow Lodge, always taking time to visit "the old People" as she affectionately called them. She was very proud to have participated in the Terry Fox Run and was sponsored by many individuals and businesses and received a letter commendation from Terry Fox's mother, Betty, for 25 years participation. Viola is survived by daughter, Marlene MacBurnie (Harry), Weymouth; sons, Christopher (Debbie), Tatamagouche; David MacBurnie, Tatamagouche; Burt MacBurnie (Brandy), Whitecourt, Alberta; grandchildren, Leanne, Jonathan, Crystal and Rachel; great grandchildren, Dylan (Lacey), Sebastian, Felicity and Kaden; son-by-choice, Doc; her pal, Molly; brothers, Truman and Billy (Linda); sisters, Phyllis Cameron and Jessie Laurie; nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by daughter, Jean Mingo and her husband, Leith Mingo; son, John; a grandchild in infancy; brothers, Stanley, Rosevil and Henry; sisters, Clara Buckler and Hilda Connelly. Arrangements have been entrusted to Coulter's Funeral Home, Tatamagouche. As with Viola wishes, cremation has taken place and a funeral service will be held at a later date.
