Louie, John, and family~
Many fond memories from growing up that included cousin Vivian and her family. My favorite were Aunt Stella's Valentine Birthday party ever year. After Aunt Stella died I would see her at the store and she always had kind words to say, especially about my Grandma. And always pictures and updates on her family. One of my most treasured keepsakes was given to me by Vivian, a Holly Hobbie plate of Aunt Stella's after her passing. I have since found 3 others and they hang on my wall with great pride. The last two years I have seen more of her and feel blessed to have known her. She was a truly amazing and caring person~just like her Mama. I love you and tell my Nana and her two sisters that I love and miss them too.

Louie, Dennis and John: God bless and keep you in this difficult time. Vivian was the greatest neighbor and friend we could have ever asked for. I loved her more than I can say. I admired her for being tidy and organized, having a green thumb, and being a jack of all trades. She was a role model in all the best ways. She was so friendly and loving. I will never forget her, having been lucky enough to be her neighbor for my entire childhood. With love, Susie Nowak

Vivian was my California Grandma and my "birthday date" every year since our birthday's are only a couple of days apart. I was lucky to have her in my life. I will never forget how kind and loving and patient she was when we'd make sugar cookies at Christmas, or ice cream parties for all of us kids and filling us with candy when we'd go home. She taught me how to plant and care for flowers. We lost our partner Louie, but we were sure lucky to have her. I will always remember our "birthday date" Viv and will buy you a cheeseburger every year. I love you. Dylan

Vivian will be very much missed in our neighborhood. Such a lovely lady! Her "candy monsters" are so grown up now, but I know she will always have a special place in their hearts.

I've known my Aunt Viv for 60 years. She always has been the best Daughter,Wife,Mother,Aunt , Niece,and Friend.She spent her whole Life watching and taking care of our wonderful Nana, who we all miss every day of our lifes.She was always a perfect match for Uncle Louie, the love of her life., and Denny and John know they had a great Mom. The last few years were very hard on her, because of her health problems. She lived with them, with grace and dignity, but anyone who knew her, knows she lived her whole life that way. Like our Nana, she will always be miss. Deborah Brown and Family

My sincerest condolences go out to the Lorenzo family in this miserable time. I will always remeber Vivian as the caring neighbor who treated all of us neighborhood kids like family. Ray, Hannah, Laura, Dylan, Alison, and myslef will eternally be her little Candy Monsters. Every visit, every home-made ice cream party, and every memory we were lucky enough to share with this wonderful woman shall be cherished in our hearts forever.

Vivian was so loved by all of her "candy monsters" up here on Hilltop. The bigger ones loved her just as much. Our family is so blessed by having Louie and Vivian in it by being freinds to us and our kids "adopted" grandparents. Her passing has left voids in our hearts. We love you both. The only comfort for me is remembering she no longer is in pain. We love you both.

spent many happy and fun times fishing with Vivian and Louie on the Eel and Van Duzen rivers. She sold me the fishing roe on the Van Duzen river when I thought I would never catch a salmon. Vivian and Louie were always very friendly and happy to be around. I met Vivian on the Van Duzen river 1974 and remained friends until her death.
