My heart was broken to see that Vivian passed away. We spent so many years playing in the backyard and having such a good time growing up together. We were best friends. So sorry that I can´t make it to the funeral. I am in the hospital myself. Our prayers are with all of you.

VIV WAS AN INCREDIBLE PERSON. I KNEW HER WHEN SHE DANCED WITH MY SISTER'S TROUPE, AFFECTIONATELY NAMED THE MESSORETTES, AT CATHY'S DANCE RECITAL. THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC TAP DANCERS@!! PITY THAT I CAN'T REMEMBER THE OTHER GIRL'S NAMES. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT I EVEF SAW VIV WITHOUT A SMILE. SHE HAND STITCHED MY NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS JACKET, ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS@! I WASN'T LIKE A CLOSE FRIEND, BUT I KNEW HER AND ALWAYS THOUGHT THE WORLD OF HER. TO VIVIAN'S CHILDREN AND FAMILY, PLEASE ACCEPT MY CONDOLENCES AND MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES. KNOW THAT SHE IS IN THE LOVING EMBRACE OF HER DEAR LORD, JESUS CHRIST. SINCERELY,,
