SOUTHINGTON ? Violet L. Goff, 97, of Southington, passed away Monday, Aug. 13, 2018, at St. Joseph Warren Hospital.
She was born June 6, 1921, in Braceville, the daughter of the late Carl and Eva Stroup Bronson.
Violet was a homemaker and excellent seamstress, mother of five daughters and grandmother to 11 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren.
On Sept. 17, 1942, Violet married Harold "Skip" Goff, who she met while swimming at Eagle Creek. They shared 66 wonderful years of marriage until his passing March 20, 2009.
Violet worked tirelessly as a volunteer for various Southington organizations beginning when her children entered school and up to the last few months when she enjoyed making historical scrapbooks for the Southington Community Trust to help preserve the Chalker building. She was most proud of initiating the Veterans Monument project at the Southington Pinecrest Cemetery. Her most fun project was creating the "500 Zucchini Recipes" cookbook as a fundraiser for the Garden Club.
She loved playing cards, board games and dominoes with her friends and family, and especially with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was a longtime member of SCOPE senior center and member of the SCOPE "500" Card Club in Warren, where she played cards twice a week for 35 years. She also organized the Southington Senior Citizens "500" Card Club in 1988.
Memories will be cherished by her daughters, Linda (Bob) Reader, Judy (Roy) Jones, Jerrie (Sam) Lee, all of Southington, Karlene Goff of Solvang, Calif. and Marsha (Art) Phipps of Champion; 29 grandchildren and great-grandchildren; sisters, Belva Shoff of Melbourne, Fla. and Velma Bowman of Cortland; and brother, James Bronson of Kinsman.
Other than her parents, Violet was preceded in death by her brother, Myron Bronson, and sister, Evelyn Bullus.
