      On April 3, 1937, she married Bert Gillette. They began their married life in Inver Grove, Minn., where three children were born. They moved to Springbrook in the spring of 1946 where Bert became joint owner of the Midway Garage. Violet stayed at home and had three more children. She enjoyed working in her garden and having many of her siblings and their families and friends near. During the 60's, Violet completed nursing aide training and worked for the Spooner Hospital and Nursing Home for 25 years. She enjoyed this work and was respected by the other aides, nurses, and doctors.

      After retiring, Bert and Vi enjoyed traveling to visit their children and also traveling with various bus tours.

      Violet was a member of the Namekagon Congregational Church UCC and the Ladies Aid at church. She was a member of the Eastern Star.

      In 1990 they moved from Springbrook to Spooner to live with their daughter Nancy.
