Don Frost Obituary
Vivian passed peacefully into the presence of her Lord February 9, 2011 and Don joined her on February 13, 2011.
We, the family, wish to thank the staff of Mother Joseph's Care Center for the love and care given to us and our parents during their passing.
Don and Vivian were both natives of Olympia and married December 4, 1942. They are survived by two daughters, Sheila Makus and Cheri Brown; five grand-children; eight great-grand-children; and two great great-grandchildren.
Don retired after many years in the building trade and Vivian was a loving homemaker. Both were active members of the Westside Alliance Church, serving as board members, teachers and choir members.
A viewing will be held at Mills & Mills, 5725 Littlerock Rd. SW, Tumwater, on Sunday, February 20, 1:00-3:00 p.m, followed by a memorial service at 3:30 p.m. at Sojourn Community Church, 8004 Pacific Ave, Lacey.

Tim and I felt so honored to attend the memorial service and to see the living legacy in the family members who were all touched by such a loving couple. It is so obvious that God's love has flowed through both Don and Vivian all during their lives - what an inspiration. May God bless and comfort all the family and friends. The reunion in heaven will be joyful!

As a visitor to Mother Joseph Care Center, I didn't know Don and Vivian except to witness the extraordinary love and commitment Don had for Vivian by sitting by her side and holding her hand day-after-day, and listening to his loving stories about her. It's a testament to that love that he followed her shortly afterwards in death, and I'm sure they are holding hands in heaven now. My condolences to their family and staff at Mother Joseph Care Center who I know took care of both of them, including moving Vivian's room closer to the entrance of the facility so Don wouldn't have to walk so far to visit her.

Shelia, Sheri and family,
We understand how difficult this time is for you and we want you to know that we are praying for you. Knowing that Uncle Don and Aunt Vivian are in the presence of the Lord is such a great comfort. They were both people that we looked up to for their unwavering faith in God. They truly lived lives reflecting God's love and never hesitated to share their love of God with others. May God bless you all at this time.
