  Violet M. Cousineau, age 92 of Hortonville, died on Thursday morning, January 15, 2015. Vi was born on June 4, 1922, in Antigo, Wisconsin, daughter of Ben and Mary (Schroepfer) Joyce. She graduated from Antigo High School and earned a Bachelor of Science degree at the Central State Technical College (now University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point). On December 22, 1943, Vi married Francis Cousineau. They lived in Texas and Tennessee while he served in the Army Air Corps. After World War II they lived in Stevens Point and Milwaukee while Francis completed his pre-dental studies and his dental degree at Marquette University. They made their home in Hortonville where Francis began his practice and they raised their six children. Violet served as librarian for the Hortonville Public Library from 1965 until 1976. Later, after earning her Nursing Assistant Certificate from Fox Valley Technical College, she was employed at the New London Hospital, retiring in 1983. Violet is survived by her daughter, Lilah (Ed) Kowieski; two sons, Dr. F. Patrick (Margie) Cousineau and Alan (Cindi) Cousineau; son in-law, Dr. Michael Illovsky; daughter in-law, Kathy Cousineau; 14 grandchildren; and ten great-grandchildren. She is further survived by three sister in-laws, Jean Joyce Liane (Dick) Seis, and Jean Cousineau; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. In addition to her parents, Vi was preceded in death by her husband, Francis who died in 1988; two daughters, Joyce Mary and Ann Marie; son, Gregory; sister, Mae Hayes; and three brothers, Bernard, Orin, and Eugene Joyce. The Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, January 19, 2015, at SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, Hortonville, with Msgr. James Feely and Parish Director Greg Layton officiating. Family and friends are invited to visit directly at church Monday morning from 9:00 a.m. until the time of Mass. Burial will be in the parish cemetery. The following lines are from a poem written by Vi after her husbands death. "It is a comfort to know that the soul doesn't die when the body wears out and departs. The person that was, continues to be ever alive in our hearts..." In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund is being established to benefit the Hortonville Public Library.
