Obituary
Viola S. Stucki born June 10, 1931 in Rose Park Utah, to Roelof and Dena Steenblik. She joined her husband in heaven October 11, 2026 while her family was gathered around.
Viola was a homemaker that lovingly and patiently raised their 5 daughters in Granger, Utah before moving to Riverton, Utah where she continued to be a piano teacher. She taught all her grandkids, including hundreds of other students to play. She touched so many lives through her love of music. After 42 years of teaching, she retired and went on a CES couples’ mission with her honey. They were called to serve in the Bloomington, Indiana Mission at the University’s Institute. She loved working with the students, teaching classes and enjoyed the spiritual time of her life. She loved her Heavenly Father and the gospel. She continued to serve through out her life through various callings and through her daily example to love and be kind. Viola moved to St. George later in life where she enjoyed an active lifestyle with close friends that she loved dearly. She loved the warm sunshine for her daily walks. She often went on beautiful scenic drives where she was in awe of the amazing views. Zion National Park was one of her favorite places to visit and has hiked every trail and walkway in the park.
Viola is proceeded in death and reunited with her loving husband Harold R. Stucki and a sweet little granddaughter. She is survived by her five daughters, Peggy (David) Alsop, Sherri (Craig) McDougal, Janine (Dean) Desmond, Brenda (Steve) Tait, Ellen (Ray) Warner, 17 grandchildren, and 40 great grandchildren.

Tributes
Dear Janine, Dean, and family.
I am so sorry for your loss, she was a great woman and will be missed so very much. I have so many wonderful memories of your dear, sweet mother; clear back to the time we served in young women’s together, when your parents first moved here, all the many visits Von and I had with them, and many times we meant together as couples in the ”Empty Nesters” get togethers, to the time I visited her each month as a ministering sister, and the many talks we had on the phone after she moved. She was a wonderful example, friend, and influence in my life. I love you both so very much, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Your Mother was one of my closest friends. We just hi it off from our first meeting. It saddened me to know she has past. I hope is she did not have to suffer too much. My prayer is for all of you left behind, is of peace and comfort at this time of sorrow, that God will Bless your Mother. My life will be forever blessed because of knowing her.
