On Saturday, July 15th, Maxine Vivian, née Titford, passed away, surrounded by the love of her family, at the age of 92. Retired Associate Professor of Science, Memorial University.
Predeceased by her husband of 69 years Cecil R. Vivian (August 2020), brother William Titford Jr., brother-in-law Frederick Vivian and sister-in-law Mabel McRoy.

We wish to express our deep appreciation to the staff of Tiffany Village Retirement Community for their excellent care and support of our parents and our family over the past seven years, with special recognition of Dr. Amanda Coleman. It really does take a village!!
At her request cremation and committal have taken place.

The family will receive visitors at Tiffany Village, 50 Tiffany Court, on Wednesday, July 26th, from 2:00 – 4:30 and 6:00 – 8:00 pm. A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 pm on Thursday, July 27th at St. Thomas’ Anglican Church, Military Road.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a charitable donation to assist homeless, hungry and marginalized members of our community.
