Viola Policella

Obituary of Viola C. Policella

A loving wife, mother, and grandmother.  One of five children, she was a wonderful daughter, sister, and aunt.  She dedicated her life to her family, always putting the needs of others before her own.  She was a confidant, friend, trusted counselor, and mentor to all, especially her children. She lived her values of honesty, compassion, and kindness daily, striving to help others in any way she could.  She embodied  the Golden Rule, and was big proponent of turning the other cheek. She was fun!  She loved dancing, music, fashion, meeting new people, and sharing close times with her family and friends. She was a talker - truly, the ultimate conversationalist. She made everyone feel at home. She was a devoted wife, caring for her husband throughout their lives together.  Her work ethic was unparalleled, she was highly organized, detailed oriented, fast, and super smart. She was a strong woman who advocated for herself in the work-place and knew her worth. She was a rock - the matriach of our family - this was evident to all.  She was truly loved by all who knew her and will be deeply missed.

 

Viola was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph H. Policella and is survived by their children, Paul Policella and his wife Marsha Loeb and their children, Zachary and Joshua Policella; Catherine Policella; Carolyn Cedar and her husband Mark and their son, Jacob; Ruth Policella and her husband Sean Partridge and their daughter, Viola; and Anne Marie Policella and her husband Peter Ferguson.
