I pray that the Holy Spirit will comfort and guide you now and in the days ahead. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 "Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him." --Sincerely, Ted Howell

One of the fineness,kind and lovely woman I know. Her beautiful spirit will live on!Carol M Harrison Bethsaida Woods

The Baldwins have been family friends for over 45 years. I can not count the number of time we dined together as families. My dear friend Vivian was my son's, Malchester III, Godmother. It does my heart good to know that she attended his marriage reception in California and was able to know his children. Vivian will be missed by all of us who loved her. We will continue to pray for Neil, Michelle, Jerald and Jasmine.

My pet name for Vivian was MOTHER EARTH. She was calm, quiet and thoughtful and I always felt a sense of tranquility in her presence. I will miss her terribly. Frances.

I am so going to miss Vivian. She participated on a regular basis with the Bethsaida Woods Homeowners Association and other civic activities. She was just a delight to be around, a true stalwart in the community. I pray for peace and strength for her family as I know it's going to be difficult for them. Rest in heaven dear Vivian.

Ruby McDaniel Bethsaida Woods Homeowners Association

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
