She had suffered a stroke several days earlier. She was born January 16, 1932 to the late George and Clara Vanosdall. Vivian grew up on the family farm in Greeley County, Nebraska and graduated from Scotia High School in Scotia, Nebraska. On February 10, 1951, she and Dennis York were married in Greeley.

They traveled from the hills of California across the plains of Nebraska and Wyoming, the mountains around Ruedi Reservoir on the Western Slope and eventually settled in Buena Vista in 1964. With the recent selling of her home she moved in with her son Lyle and wife in Elbert County, Colorado. She has a daughter Janet (York) Brummett and family in Loveland, Colorado.
