Vi Berry

Violet Twedt Berry, age 70, of Glendive, MT, was called home to Heaven on Saturday, July 26, 2025 in Billings, MT. Visitation will be held from 5-7 PM, Wednesday, July 30, 2025, at Silha Funeral Home in Glendive. Funeral Service will be held at 10 AM, Thursday, July 31, 2025, at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Glendive with Pastor Greg Lucido and Pastor Howard Schreibeis officiating. Interment will be held at Dawson County Cemetery. A luncheon for family and friends at The Moose Lodge in Glendive will follow the church service. Silha Funeral Home of Glendive has been entrusted with arrangements. Vi was born June 12, 1955, to John and Marjorie (Keysor) Twedt in Sidney, MT. She was raised on the farm with her sisters east of Bloomfield. Vi attended East Plains Country School for eight years before attending Dawson County High School, graduating in 1973. After high school she attended Williston State College in Williston, ND, where she earned her associates degree. Vi was married and later divorced. From this union, she welcomed her beautiful son, Steve, in 1983. Vi loved taking care of people and acted as a friend, sister, second mother, and second grandmother to many. She was especially there for her niece and great-nieces, always attending their events, making treats for bus rides, planning things, and supporting her loved ones in every way. She cooked for all the holidays and found any excuse to be with her loved ones. Vi loved having her family and friends around her. Vi started her career in Hysham and later moved back to Glendive, MT, to manage the El Centro Motel for Dick Carney where she would continue to work for the next 40 plus years. Vi retired in 2024, but as we all know, this did not mean she slowed down. She loved being outside, whether it was tending to her famously beautiful flowers or going for long walks around town. Vi was always on the go. Her hobbies included hosting, gardening, walking, watching America’s Got Talent with Jada, having a salad from YRI with Allie, making pies for Jim, having coffee with her friends, and going shopping with Sage. Vi was always in the know and ready to help if needed. Her community service will be greatly missed, from providing meals to families experiencing loss through Care and Comfort to offering a kind word or someone to talk to on her many daily walks. She was willing to help anyone and often went out of her way to support her friends and strangers, even stepping in to time a rodeo or two. Vi’s favorite sport to follow was baseball. She always knew not only how the local team was doing, but also the players and loved attending games. One of her favorite games was the Northwest Regional Tournament in Dallas, OR, in July of 1996. She cheered on her son, Steve, and the rest of the 12-year-old Bambino All-Stars as they battled hard and brought home the 3rd place tournament trophy. Vi is survived by her nephew, Troy Lenneman of Bozeman, MT, and his children, Bryce, Grace, and Emma; her niece, Amanda Baisch of Glendive, MT, and her daughters, Allie, Sage, and Jada; her nephew, Jimmy Baisch of Yuma, AZ, and his daughter, Sophia; brothers-in-law, Jim Baisch of Glendive, MT, and Keith Moss of Belgrade, MT; and many cousins, including her close cousin and friend, Kathy Stoner. She was preceded in death by her son, Steve Berry; her sisters, Alice Moss and Verna Baisch; her parents; and her grandparents. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to Sunrise Women’s Clinic in Sidney, MT, or any local sports teams—especially cross country, rodeo, and Babe Ruth Baseball.
