Vivian Estelle Harper was born Vivian Estelle Jackson, the daughter of Julius Jackson and Grace Jackson. Vivian entered this world on May 31, 1924 in Providence, Rhode Island. Vivian, her mother, and only sibling Winafred left Rhode Island while she was in her later teens and moved to New York, where she later married Van Buren Rhem. Vivian bore and raised four children; Dennis Rudolph Jackson, Beverly Deloris Rhem, Preston Van Rhem, and Mark Steven Rhem. She was also instrumental in the raising of two step children; Mary Ann Rhem, and Ida May Rhem. Vivian dedicated her life to serving Jehovah in 1948, which equates to 67 years of faithful, loyal service to our Creator. During the course of those 67 years, she studied the Bible with countless individuals and families, many of whom became loyal servants of Jehovah. Vivian began her working career as a housekeeper in New York City, where she later entered into a career in electronics and climbed to prestigious supervisory positions. After retiring from electronics, she went on to become a successful real estate salesperson while continuing her dedicated service to Jehovah. Vivian loved flowers and horticulture, and she was known for her interior decorating skills. Her most appreciated and admired quality was her desire and willingness to help others in need, and she was loved for her helpful deeds. Vivian is survived by Dennis Rudolph, Preston Van, and Mark Steven.
