Funeral service for Violet “Van” Evangeline Roberts Taylor will be 1 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 19, 2015, at Henninger-Hinson Funeral Home Chapel, with the Rev. Gail Edmison officiating. Burial will follow at Enid Cemetery. Service is under the direction of Henninger-Hinson Funeral Home.

Van was born Nov. 10, 1914, in Rosiclare, Ill., to Ottis and Hester Mae (Daymon) Dimick and passed away at the young age of 100 on Feb. 13, 2015, at The Commons in Enid.

She attended Enid schools. At the age of 7, Van was baptized in her faith.

On July 14, 1932, she married John Barney Roberts. He preceded her in death on Aug. 8, 1965. In 1988, she married William “Bill” Taylor and he passed away Oct. 30, 1997. Van worked as a cosmetologist and consultant for Merle Norman for a number of years, in addition to taking care of her five daughters.

Her hobbies included playing the piano, as well as various instruments, sewing and ceramics. Her passion, though, was taking care of and loving her children and family.

Van was a member of the RSVP Band; Oklahoma Fiddlers Association; Davis Park Christian Church; Red Hat Society; and several bands. She also was proud to be a foster grandparent at NORCE.

She was preceded in death by her parents; two daughters, Janice Miles and Patricia Rohrs; two grandchildren, Michelle Holmes and Ricky Rohrs; one great-granddaughter, Chandra Peck; and three brothers, Kenneth, Charles and O.L. Dimick.

Van is survived by three daughters, Linda Sue Roberts Gillette of Moore, Joan Roberts Blair Kendall of Lone Grove, and Cheri Roberts McGrath and husband Rick of Enid; sister, Phyllis West of Wichita, Kan.; sister-in-law, Myrtle Dimick of Midwest City; and grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews too numerous to count.

Memorials can be given through the funeral home to Hospice Circle of Love.
