I am glad that she joined us at Sarah's house a few weekends ago for a ladie's craft night. She is a special person and we're all saddened by her passing.

Vivian was always the calm when storms brewed in noisy PSB Receiving. I would have to focus on her wonderfully soft voice on the phone and it would settle me right down to where I was smiling again. She was a gem.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Though our contact was minimal through emails at work, I am grateful for the ease she provided in hectic times. Seemingly small but in these moments of my life I will remember hers.
