Her love lives in all of us and we ask you to keep David (Linda) Rudeen, Diane (Don) Alsbrooks, Becky (Bill) Sadler, Doug (Shawn) Rudeen and Amy (John) Fidel, as well as her 12 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren in your prayers.
Vivian taught in the Albuquerque Public Schools System for 20 years at Cortez and Zuni Elementary schools. After retirement, she found great joy as a volunteer with the Albuquerque Convention and Visitors Bureau.
