"Vivian and I have been friends since high school. She was a bridesmaid in my wedding and I was her bridesmaid. She lived with me for 2 months before she got married to Art. She could be quirky at times, but that’s what made her interesting. I will miss her phone calls. My deepest sympathies to Stephen, David and Matthew."

"Unfortunately I only have faded memories of Vivian and Artie from when I was a child and lived in Evanston. My condolences to the family."

"Well, it's been a week now since my mother passed and first I would like to send a special thank you to the Funeral Director Timothy Bergman at Yurs Funeral Homes for his kindness, thoughtfulness, and professionalism. I'm so glad I chose Yurs during this process. Also to Pastor Mike Leshon of Gentiva hospice for visiting my mom at River Crossing of Elgin who spent time with her on multiple occasions. He did a wonderful job at her burial with his kind words about my mom and the wonderful prayers. Can't say enough about them both. I also appreciate Luann and Michael Storm of Louisville Kentucky (cousins) for changing their flight back home to be with my family during this difficult time. It's hard to lose a loved one at any time and my mom staying in the nursing home was really hard on her and me. She's at rest now but probably telling someone in Heaven what to do. Everything had a place in her eyes and things needed to be just right without fail as she used to say. To all who traveled far and close to help me and my brothers get through this, I say Thank You from the bottom of my heart. She is now surrounded by Jesus, her parents, my dad Artie, and all the family members who have passed before her in peace. Rest easy Mom as you will not be forgotten and will be missed. Love you."
