Vivian Chinnici Obituary
As a stay at home mom, she was dedicated to raising her two children. However, at the age of 50 years old, she got her first drivers license and went back to school where she received a degree in nursing and became a registered nurse.
Vivian enjoyed working in the yard with her flowers, but her true happiness came from spending time with her family and friends. She was a loving mom and grandmother.
In addition to her parents, Vivian was preceded in death by her husband, Frank D. Chinnici of Irwin, PA; brothers William Y. Jones of Herminie, PA, U. Grant Jones Ill of West Newton, PA, and Carl G. Jones of Irwin, PA; and sisters Dorothy J . Dunham of North Huntingdon, PA and Irene Gangaware of Enola, PA.
She is survived by her daughter Lisa Dawson and son Fran Chinnici both of Jacksonville, FL. Her memory will also be cherished by her six grandchildren Greg (Emily Nishibori) Kerr of East Orleans, MA, DeLani (Tori Dagg) Dawson of Vancouver, B.C., and Ali (Chris Russell) Dawson of Maroa, IL; Chelsea (Chris) Anderson of Norfolk, VA; Cory Chinnici of St Thomas USVA; Chad Chinnici of Jacksonville, FL; and her two great-grandchildren Gabriel and Julian Anderson also of Norfolk, VA.
All who knew her were touched by her gentle nature and kind soul. She was very loved.
Memorialization will be by cremation.
