JOANNE MARY VIOLAND

January 8, 2023, Joanne Mary Violand, at the age of 90, went home to be with her personal Lord and Savior. She was one of six children and the only daughter born to parents, Edward and Loretta (Wersbrod) King, on December 16, 1932 in Canton, Ohio.

Together with her parents, she was also preceded in death by her brother, Ronald King.

A 1950 graduate of Mt. Marie Academy, she attended and graduated from Mercy School of Nursing in 1953, earning her degree as a RN. She spent many years, unselfishly caring for others, being an inspiration and sharing her faith in love.

She spent nine years with the sister of Notre Dame and was a member of St. Paul's Catholic Church in North Canton.

Joanne touched the lives of many and her memory will be cherished by those she leaves behind; brothers, Raymond (Parlene) King of Phoenix, Arizona, William (Arlene) King of Hastings, Florida, Thomas King of Canton, and Kenneth (Connie) King of Athol, Idaho; and to everyone whose lives she made a difference in.
