Violet "Vi" Weaver Shiffer

Vi Shiffer, age 96, was born in Berrysburg, PA on April 29, 1927 to parents, Lottie Teeter Weaver and Charles M. Weaver.  She moved to Wilson, NC on July 4, 1965 with her husband, Cloyd J. “CJ” Shiffer, her son, Keith (Greg) and daughter, Chris.  She was employed at Kenly Manufacturing Company where she was head of the shipping department until retirement.

Vi and Cloyd were faithful members of Ascension Lutheran Church from 1965 to present.  They loved their church and made many lifetime friends there.  They especially enjoyed participating in the Food for Friends Saturday “Meals On Wheels” program with other church members.

A private graveside service will be held at a later date for the convenience of the family.
