Vilas "Vi" Ward

With a heavy heart we wanted to share the passing of our mother, Vilas Bonnell Alford. She was born on April 19th 1952 raised in Sarasota Fl. Later moved to Oklahoma where she spent many years. She reunited with her 3 daughters in 2012. Holly Patterson of Ohio. Heather Andrews of Bradenton, and Heidi Vandermolen of Sarasota. 

 

Vilas was an RN, and went above and beyond for her patients. She adored her pets.  She loved the beach where she found her peace. 

 

Her children provided her with in-laws, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, from the ages of 32 years to one on the way. 

 

She was loved by her family and friends and will be missed more than words can say.
