We are heartbroken to learn that Vivian has died. Her kindness, generosity of spirit, intelligence, gentle self-deprecating wit, phihlanthropic energies, courage in battling for her life, and fierce love of her family and friends will be sorely missed. We know how much she was looking forward to the marriage of Tegan a few weeks ago and how much she wished that Strachan was there to walk her "down the aisle." We admired her so much and cherished our friendship. Our deepest sympathy to all...

Vivian taught me again and again how kindness can make all the difference. When my family moved to New York more than twenty years ago, my daughters were in middle and high school. It was a tough move. The Donnelleys' kindness - Vivian, Strachan, Aidan, Ceara, Tegan, Naomi, and Inanna - made us feel welcome. I will never forget Vivian's warmth and graciousness. My heart goes out to all her beautiful children and grandchildren - it is a loss beyond measure.
