Viola F. Redding, 90 years old, passed away suddenly Sunday, February 26, 2023 at Kingston Residence of Sylvania, Sylvania, OH.

Viola had worked as an administrative secretary for Sheller Globe Company until the birth of her 3 daughters.
Born of immigrant parents, she was especially proud of her Italian heritage. Throughout her life she enjoyed traveling with her husband in their motor home, attending church, listening to opera music, playing bridge, and beating anyone, who dared to challenge her, in a game of Chinese checkers.
More than anything though, Viola loved spending time with her children and grandchildren and watching them have families of their own. Her family was her pride and joy.
