Violet Euphemia Tyndall's Obituary
Violet Euphemia Tyndall nee Campbell, was born on the beautiful Island of Jamaica to her parents, George and Olivia Campbell on April 6, 1936. She was the 7th of 8 children, 6 girls and 2 boys.
As we mourn her passing, I am telling you that my grief is insurmountable because we were the only 2 girls left.
As I watched her suffering over the past few years, my grief became unsurpassable because her suffering was so great and there was nothing I can do to heal this wonderful sister.
I came to the conclusion that the lord knew that she had completed the task he had sent her to do on Earth and was calling her home.
Violet was trained as a nurse at the University of West Indies in Jamaica and worked very hard to take care of the ill people who were entrusted to her care.
In the late 60’s, she immigrated to the United States where she continued her nursing career and also earned a Masters Degree in Nursing while she worked.
She advanced and became an assistant Nursing Director but found time to also to visit her family often, especially during Holidays.
We were raised as Episcopalians and wherever we resided, we were always involved in the work of the church.
In New York, Violet and Lloyd were married and they had a wonderful life together. Traveling all over the world. I know Lloyd will miss her greatly and we are here to tell him to be strong because we believe they will see and meet each other again.
So many have called and expressed there condolences and sympathies and told us of her kindness and love for the people she has come across in her life.
Her nephews, nieces and others will also tell you that she was a mother to them with so much action and good deeds that even if they are not here today to see her off they are crying and mourning her loss today.
There are people in this community that we would like to thank, especially for the help given during Voilet’s illness.
Mr. George Alleyne, Ms. Beverly Graham, Andrea Johnson and family, Ms. Yvonne Lingard and husband and Jenni Mitchell who cared for her in her final days, Father Eddy from the Church of the epiphany and the members of the church, too many to mention, who visited her often.
Her husband Lloyd, Lorraine and Susan join us in thanking you all as well as her relatives Nadene, Omar, Erik and Ian, Angela and Garth and all the rest of the family too numerous to name are all in deep mourning.
I want to single out Omar, who’s only work in the last days took on the responsibility of visiting and caring for his Aunt Vie. She loved him dearly and he in turn looked at her as his 2nd mother.
I could not read this obituary today, because I am too heart broken. I know where she is gone and I can tell you she was the best sister one could have in life.
We love you dearly Violet because we know you are going to the Lord and we will meet again. Rest in Peace now and rise in Glory.
