I went to Viola's funeral yesterday in LA and it was a very beautiful service and I was able to meet a few members of her family and was even invited to the one of her relatives home for the repast but had to decline.
Her grandson Sheldon personally thanked me and my Husband for being there and I told him how special his grandmother was to me and how thankful I was for him extending the invitation for us to attend.
