Vivian taught in Gillman and Des Moines, Iowa and Douglas, Arizona. From 1961 – 1991 she taught in the Tucson Unified School District in Elementary and Junior High.
Vivian was a very active member of the River of Life Baptist Church in Tucson until her health no longer permitted. She enjoyed reading, word searches, and put many jigsaw puzzles together, always having one going.
Vivian returned to Iowa in March 2014 to live with her sister, Lois Schmelzle. Due to failing health, she became a resident in Jefferson Place at the end of May 2014.
Vivian is survived by her sisters and brother-in-law, Shirley & Gerrit Van Hal, and Lois Schmelzle; two nieces and two nephews: Sharon (Lyle) Nunnikhoven, Gregory (Sue) Van Hal, Erwin Van Hal, and Anita (Scott) Carrol; twelve great nieces and nephews; and eight great-great nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest and Anna Van Der Kamp, and brother-in-law, Marvin Schmelzle.
