Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryVIVIAN ARLENE HOLMES
It is with great sadness that the family announces the sudden passing of Vivian Arlene Holmes on September 20, 2025, at the age of 87.
She was predeceased by her parents, George and Eunice Holmes (nee Dowd); brother Blair Holmes; and husband Gerry Kloss.
Left to cherish her memory are her four children, Kelly (Tim), Candace (Ron), Karen (Jon), and Kerry.
Vivian devoted herself completely to her family. With boundless love, strength, and joy, she built a home that was filled with warmth, laughter, and the kind of unconditional love that shaped generations. She remained so young at heart and her love for life was evident to all who knew her.
Her six grandchildren - Bailey, Riley, Mackenzie, Karsten, Jace, and Easton - were the absolute joy of her life. She was endlessly proud of each of them and cherished every moment spent together. Her family was everything to her, and she was happiest when surrounded by them.
She leaves behind a family who adored her - her children, grandchildren, extended relatives, and countless friends whose lives were made better by knowing her. A mother, grandmother - gone too soon.
Rest peacefully, Vivian. You gave us everything - your love, your laughter, your light. Your legacy lives on in all of us, and your memory will forever be our treasure.
