I was a life long friend of Vivian. I grew up in Woodbury Heights, NJ. I lost contact with her when my husband passed away in 2001, and I had to move from my Glassboro, NJ house. I relocated to Cardinal Retirement Village, then I had to move to Arizona with my daughter. I am now 98 years old, and so my daughter is typing this for me. I just saw this obituary. I am deeply sad to learn of my dear friend's passing. I would love to be in contact with Elaine. You can reach my daughter and I through this service. I hope Elaine sees this message. Sincerely, Helen Bickford.

I lived across the street from Mrs. Burhans for many years and played with her granddaughter Melissa. Mrs. Burhans was very kind and had an amazing doll collection that all the little girls in the neighborhood adored. She will be missed.
