To the Family of Vivian Mitchell:
I was sorry to hear of Vivian's passing and sorry that learned of the memorial service too late to attend.
Vivian was one of my best friends in high school. We also played in the band together. I was so sorry that we lost touch after we graduated.
My prayers and thoughts are with the family.
In Sympathy,
Mina (Hicks) Wright -704 N. 7th Avenue Maywood, IL 708-977-5327

My sincerest condolences on Vivian's passing to her entire family, friends, and all that had the pleasure of Viv. She was truly one of a kind and will be remembered and missed forever. I was honored and blessed to know her. I met her through my late partner Ty, who was her oldest friend in Florida. Over the course of 20 years, she shared her thoughts, company, and most of all, so much laughter. While she loved my cooking, I was a huge admirer of hers, as no one cold make a pot roast dinner as good as hers. She adopted Bentley to be loved and cared for when I wasn't able to after Ty's passing when I wasn't able too. She provided so much love and care to all her puppies like no other. Even if Skipper had a bad day she just smiled and gave more love. She was also not only dedicated to her duties at Florida Hospital and the patients, but just as much she was dedicated to her coworkers. I personally saw many times how her coworkers reciprocated that deep affection and respect. Viv had the biggest heart of just about anyone I have ever met (ok, as big a heart as my Ty but it wasn't a contest just who they were). I hate to say good bye to Vivie because she lives on in all of us lucky to have been touched by her. May she have eternal peace with lots of love and laughter up above as she should have no less.

My sincere condolences to Sue's family. What a great time it was growing up when the entire neighbor were friends. Somehow we always ended up on the Mitchell's front porch. Such great memories I have from back in the day. Going for drives in Sue's blue Valiant is one such memory. May she rest in peace.

Viv was such a fun caring presence in our lives. She and our Uncle Mark made things so fun and took us on so many adventures. I'll never forget all the holidays playing games and eating her cherry torte. She will be missed!

So many great memories of Viv riding in her Trans Am and cruising around town, and grabbing her mom at 2 am and cruising with us. She will be missed but never forgotten.

Love through the fear of loss. Love the things and people that wander into your life, love them while you have them, love them when you lose them, love them when you don't have them and love them while you're waiting to get them. All things must be, all things will pass and all things must fade; it is our job to hold them tight until they do. The secret of life is to be Home, to those that stumble into your life.(Tyler Knott Greyson) Sweet sweet Vivian, I'm so grateful you stumbled into my life and I will miss you until we meet again. ❤ Kaye

Dear Viv,
I could not think of anything to write. I was deeply saddened about you leaving so early. Viv, you were an amazing, wonderful, and cheerful person. I always remembered the time when I was a student to become an x-ray tech. Viv always helped, supported, and cared for me when no one was there for me. Viv made me feel comfortable when I worked with her. We always shared every moments in our life together. And Viv always spread generosity and kindness to others. These are the reasons why I named my daughter Vivian, so she will have big Viv's heart in hers. Viv, you will always be in my heart. I , my husband and Vivian will miss you dearly.
LOVE
