Bio

Violet Marie Tate, 99, of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, died on Sunday, January 6, 2019. She was born February 3, 1919 near Eufaula, Oklahoma to Robert Edgar and Katie Bell Etchison Tate. She passed Sunday, January 6, 2019. Violet married Orville A. Tate July 14, 1940 in Sayre, Oklahoma. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Orville; daughter, Faye; five brothers and two sisters. She was survived by a brother, Robert 'Bud' Tate; son, Orville Jr. and wife Bunny; son, James and wife Jeanie; daughter, Betty Beaty and husband Gary; and numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. Violet was active in Platonic and Sorosis clubs; the Methodist Church; and she enjoyed sewing for family members which won many County Fair Ribbons. She attended school in Pleasant Plains, Texas grades 1-4 in Borger, Texas; grades 5-7 in Stinnett, Texas; and she went directly into the 9th grade in Carter, Oklahoma; then graduated high school in Ocena, Oklahoma. Violet enjoyed playing basketball while in high school. She had a little problem with home economics because she refused to wash windows, and was nearly kicked out of school; the family always thought we had some fancy brown tint on our home windows! Violet never knew where the gas cap was on any car she drove. Violet enjoyed family get-togethers at the lake; cooking; furniture upholstery; wallpapering; oil painting and operating her knitting machine. Her favorite flowers were day lilies and roses. Services were held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, 12 January, at Smith & Kernke Funeral Home, N May Avenue, Oklahoma City.
