Such a beautiful woman both inside and out! I feel blessed that I was able to meet Vivian, and will cherish our bond forever. It was truly admirable to see her surrounded by her loving, beautiful family! Sometimes you meet people that stamp an impression on your heart you will carry forever, Vivian left a lasting one with me. Thank you Mary, James, Kathy, Shelly, and the rest of the beautiful family for allowing me to witness the love you all carried for Vivian! I consider you all family, and love each of you! What a beautiful journey Vivian had, her legacy lives on through each of her three beautiful daughters. Fly high beautiful Vivian! Legends never die!

Vivian has been my friend since early 1990´s. We have shared many good times, have volunteered together and had a wonderful relationship. I will miss her so much but I know she is with her savior. Rest in peace friend.

One of the most impactful things my mom taught and instilled in me was to be strong, independent and responsible, just like she was. And although my sisters, daughters and niece and I are, we'll never compare to my mom. Her strength, courage and unselfish love is like no other!
I can't thank her enough for her unconditional love and sacrifices. I will always love and respect her immensely!
I love you mom,
Shelly
