Viola (Cortez) Densmore, 65, of Clyde, passed away on Thursday morning, June 18, 2015 in her home after a brief illness.
She was born on December 9, 1949 in Alamo, Texas to the late Juan and Paulita (Cantu) Cortez.
Viola graduated from Port Clinton High School in 1968, and worked many years in the medical field, for different practitioners, before recently retiring.
She enjoyed going to, and being active with, Sandusky Eagles and AMVETS events. Viola loved her "little trips" with her husband, Robert, and she especially loved Niagara Falls. She also enjoyed reading, and she made sure her grandchildren went to the library (and stayed active, in general). Her family describes her as the true matriarch of the family. No matter what she did and how she did it, you always knew that Viola cared for you. She was a loving and giving woman who always had a smile on her face.
Viola is survived by her husband of 35 years, Robert J. Densmore, whom she married on May 31, 1980; daughters, Misty (Dale) Didion and Liz (Tony) Bollini, both of Sandusky; grandchildren, Dianna, Miranda, Haiden, and Marianna; great-granddaughter, Delilah; sister, Esmeralda Cortez; brothers, Juan (Wendy), Jr. and Apolonio (Elva) Cortez; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and other family members.
A Funeral Mass will be held on Wednesday, June 24, 2015 at 10 A.M. at Holy Angels Catholic Church, 428 Tiffin Ave., Sandusky. Father Michael P. Roemmele will officiate. Fellowship will immediately follow.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Viola's name to Stein Hospice, 1200 Sycamore Line, Sandusky, OH 44870 or to Erie County Cancer Services, 505 E. Perkins Ave., Sandusky, OH 44870.
Toft Funeral Home & Crematory, 2001 Columbus Ave., Sandusky, is handling arrangements.
