Mrs. Viola Robinson, 91, of Charleston, SC entered into eternal rest on January 1, 2023. Ms. Viola, affectionately known as "Vi", was born October 24, 1931, in Charleston, S.C. to the late Mrs. Jessie Mae Evans. Viola attended public schools in Charleston and as a young woman, she moved to Harlem, New York in the early 1950s for work. She was employed in service until she retained a position at Lincoln Hospital, Bronx, NY. Vi returned to Charleston in the late 1970s and worked in retail until 1999. Viola was best known for her caring and generous spirit, and her trust in Almighty God. She spoke daily to and about God, and in her own words, she consistently and unceasingly said "…My Heavenly Father".
Viola Robinson leaves to cherish her memory three children, Jennifer Elaine McKnight, Steven Robinson and Stephanie A. Robinson. Her son, Kenneth, preceded her in death. She also leaves her adoring brothers, George Robinson, Joseph Evans, Jr., Vanderbilt Evans; sister, Bobbie Waller, and sister-in-law, Sandy Evans to hold her memories. Vi was preceded in death by her sisters and brother, Ruthie Skeleton, Alonzo Evans and Sandra Holmes. Viola has ten grandchildren, great grandchildren and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and beloved friends, all which she held dear in her heart.
