A Little Bit About Viola’s Case: Viola was seen for the last time on August 18, 1991. At the time, she was walking on Lakeshore Avenue in Sioux Lookout, Ontario. According to Viola’s daughters, she went out with some friends one night and never came home. The Ontario Provincial Police are investigating the case. In December 2017, Viola’s family spoke at the MMIWG inquiry hearings that happened in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Viola’s oldest daughter, Lilly Southwind, said many years after her mother went missing she a attempted to retrieve the photos of her mother that her family had given to the police. She was told that her mothers file was lost and that it “may have gone into the burn pile.” The police say they have since tried to rebuild the file, but Lilly says it’s too late.
