Predeceased by her parents Charles and Lizzie Piercey, her sister Betty Hammond as well as her brother Ron Piercey. Celebrating her life, beloved husband of 56 years Fred Tulk, her brother-in law Dave Tulk (Carol), her sisterin law Velma Piercey, her nieces Rhonda Mckinnon (Ian Mckinnon), Kimberley Hammond (Todd Stanley), nephews Glenn Piercey (Sue Ziegler), Matthew Tulk (Jennifer Stanley), and Martin Tulk. Her grandnieces and nephews Erin, Colin, Ben, Noah, Aaron, Kyla and Taylor. Violet will also be missed by a wide circle of other family and lifelong friends. As a much-loved teacher she touched the lives of many young students. She was a kind, loving, compassionate individual who always had words of encouragement for anyone she encountered. Violet was a dedicated church volunteer who served in many roles which included church warden, president of the ACW, eucharistic assistant and lecturer of biblical studies. She was an animal lover and in summertime could often be found walking the beaches of Cape Freels or the trails of Newtown. Her sense of humor and infectious laugh will always be remembered. We gratefully acknowledge the nurses and staff of 4 South B HSC, Dr. Dayna Butler, and Archdeacon Edward Keeping.
