Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our loving mother, Vivian McGillivray, on December 26, 2020 at the age of 85. Vivian was blessed with the gift of making friends easily. Her easygoing, giving nature and willingness to listen meant within a few short moments of meeting someone she would have made a new friend. She was loved by all, including her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and all she adopted along the way.
Vivian loved to play cards games, and although modest, she was extremely gifted at all of them. It was a rare day that she did not play a game somewhere.
Originally from Chapleau, Ontario, Vivian loved to tell fond stories of her childhood there with her extended family. She moved several times but finally settled in Toronto where she married and raised her family. She would spend every summer with her children in Wasaga Beach and continued to do so right up to the very end. Vivian was adventurous and loved to travel. She loved her family and gave them all she had.
Vivian was predeceased by her loving husband Leo McGillivray (June 25, 2020). She was loved by her children, Leo Jr. (Twila), Brian, Mary, Lynn Helm (Tom), Ann Kumamoto – predeceased (Larry), Danny, Kim (Deano), Karen (Jason). Vivian also leaves behind a legacy of 16 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. She will be missed by all that knew her.
Due to the current Covid 19 situation, a celebration of life will be scheduled when safe to do so.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Vivian McGillivray March 17 1935 December 26 2020 (age 85)..
