Cheryl, Kathy and I got to visit Viv in April of this year we are so glad we did. I miss her already.
Viv had a way of making everyone feel like they were the most important person. That was one of her most special gifts. I know she was dear to so many people, her family, her community and to the women of the Will County Jail. We will all miss her and celebrate her at the same time.

I woke up very early this morning, thinking of her...fond memories flooded my mind...I whispered a prayer and smiled. Little did I know that she had passed on to her eternal reward.
I got to know Sister Vivian very well when I was in the Common Franciscan Novitiate program. She was my close connection to my own sisters during that time I was away from my community. From then on she became a sister and mentor to me. Later, when she found out I was doing vocation ministry, she reminded me how important it is to have a support system. She told me, nothing is more heartbreaking to the congregation than losing the vocation of their own vocation director. And so, she continued, come talk to me before you get to that point. You know where to find me.” Then she gave me a hug of reassurance of continued support, prayer and love. I will miss her dearly. Thank you, Sister Vivian for making a difference in my life. Heaven has gained your lovely presence. Sympathies and prayers to her family and the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate.

I’m sure going to miss this sweet lady. I have done her hair for so many years and have had so many great conversations. She was my person when I needed extra prayers. She accidentally FaceTimed me a few days before her passing and I’m so glad she did, I got to see her one last time. I know you were ready to be in heaven and I’m glad you’re not suffering. I’m sure going to miss our talks. Rest in Peace Sister Vivian, I’m sure going to miss you.
Love Kathy

Of all the people I’ve ever known, she is the person I admired most. She was diligently present. She treated everyone with kindness & respect… and she spent her entire adult life giving to other people.
