The daughter of Frank Gingras and Barbara (Scheidler) Gingras, Violet was
born in 1924, in Chippewa Falls and grew up on a dairy farm in Lafayette.
Tasks on the farm included helping her older brother, Harold, operate a
horse-drawn cultivator. After graduating from Notre Dame McDonell High
School, she was employed in the office at St Joseph’s Hospital, in Chippewa
Falls, before attending Eau Claire State Teachers College. She taught at
various schools in Chippewa and Clark counties. Her last teaching assignment
was second grade at St. Anthony Catholic School in Loyal, where her students
included her daughter, Mary Jo. She then assisted her husband, Norman, start
Roth Mfg. Co., a farm-equipment manufacturing business in Loyal. Violet was
the office manager until she retired in her late seventies.
In 1946, she was united in marriage to the love of her life, Norman Roth, at
St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Cadott. He had earlier met Violet at St.
Rose on a Sunday… after noticing Violet walking up for communion… wearing a
fur jacket and an elegant, red hat.
Violet was a high-energy, joyful soul with an infectious smile… who easily
made friends. She was a member of St. Anthony Church and its PCCW. She
served on the Loyal Library Board for many years and was a member of the
Lone Pine Homemakers Club for over 50-years.
She will be dearly missed, but fondly remembered by her children, Daniel,
Loyal; Mark (Lucille), Marshfield; Mary Jo Roth, Plymouth, Minn.; Ann
Newman, Deerfield, Ill.; Thomas (Christine), Loyal; Anthony (Joy),
Neillsville; and Kathleen (James) Lundstrom, Brooklyn Park, Minn.; along
with 13 treasured grandchildren; three precious great-grandchildren; one
daughter-in-law, Jean Roth of Lakewood, Wash.; two brothers, Harold Gingras,
Chippewa Falls and Robert (Sachiko) Gingras, Cadott; and numerous nieces and
nephews.
Preceding her in death were her parents; her husband, Norman; her beloved
son, Joseph; her two sisters, Audrey Mcllquham and Eloise Burfisher Hoffman;
and her son-in-law, Bill Newman.
Violet asked that any memorials be directed to St. Anthony Catholic School,
PO Box 69, Loyal, WI 54446.
