Lovingly Remembered

November 7, 1936 – December 12, 2024

Vivian Bernette Balderston was born November 7^th, 1936 – the eighth and youngest child of Sigurd and Inga Haugland. She passed away on December 12^th, 2024, at the age of 88 years.

Vivian was the devoted wife to Gilbert and a cherished Mother to Susan, Kurt and Joanne. Throughout her life she was the heart of her family and an active member of her community and her church. She enjoyed gardening, curling, playing cards, dancing, doing puzzles and being surrounded by family. Anyone who knew her appreciated her quiet, gentle nature.

She is survived by her husband, children, 8 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. She will be missed by all who knew her. We are grateful she is now at rest with her Lord and the family who predeceased her.

We would like to say thank you to the staff at Homecare and Mackenzie Place, and a very special thank you to Kathy Green, Carol Shinski, and Trina Isley-Sorensen for the wonderful care they provided our Mom.
