LW Birthday

Violet (Vi) Schwabenland from Mutual 6, will celebrate her 99th birthday on July 12 with her family and neighbors.

Born in 1923, Vi was an only child growing up in Los Angeles during the Great Depression, but she always loved to dance. Vi met her husband Harold at a dance hall after the war, and it was love at first sight. They raised their sons, Wayne and Craig, in Rossmoor and lived in Desert Hot Springs before moving to LW 20 years ago. Vi and Harold were married nearly 70 years and shared a passion for dancing, travel, tennis, golf, bridge and camping. Vi worked for Robert Young at Columbia Pictures and for the Los Alamitos School District before retiring. She is a voracious reader and loves to laugh and play bridge. Vi keeps herself busy and optimistic.

Vi is one in a million and a great inspiration to her neighbors. Along with her two sons she has four grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Her family and friends wish her good health, lots of laughter and the best of everything.
