      Viola Novosad was born on February 13, 1913 in Erie, Pennsylvania. She was the only child born of Anthony and Bernice Kusinski. Her father was killed in a traffic accident before Viola was born. Bernice later remarried and Viola was given the last name of Sierputowicz. Viola’s early childhood was spent in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania. She had four sisters, Evelyn, Alice, Katherine and Bernice and two brothers, Stanley and Chester. Her family moved to Grand Rapids in the 1920’s. Viola married Nick Novosad in 1931. Their first son was born the next year and named Nick Junior who married Susan. A second son was born in 1941, named Michael Simon who married Barbara. Viola had four granddaughters, Cindy Sakraney (Prakash) of Corona Del Mar, California, Lisa IIIa (Fred) of Nampa, Idaho, Kathleen Gunst of Walker, Michigan and Marjorie Cornett (Mike) of Walker, Michigan and ten great grandchildren. Nick Sr. passed away in early 1974. Viola has also out-lived all of her younger siblings. Cremation and burial have taken place. There will be a private memorial at a later date.
