I am so sorry to read of the loss of Vivian. She was a very special person and I know she loved her family more than anything. She was a good person so I know she will have a home with Jesus. Please know she will be missed.

My sincere condolence goes out to the family of Vivian. I first met Vivian back in 1972 at Data Processing, NavPhibBase, Little Creek. The years we worked together she was always a positive lady and a pleasure to work with. There just not enough good words to say about Vivian. I know she will be missed by all that knew her.
