Born in Charleroi on July 14, 1919, she was the daughter of the late William James and Mattie Gertrude Rodgers Davenport Hickey of Speers. Vivian married her loving husband, Herman, on June 19, 1940, and moved to Webster, where she lived for 55 years. First and foremost, Vivian was a homemaker and in her own words, “tried to be a good wife and loving mother” who was devoted to her family.

She then joined West Newton United Presbyterian Church, where she was a member of the United Circle. She was a founding member and president of the Women’s Auxiliary of the Webster Fire Department. She was also a member of the Rostraver Homemakers’ Club for many years. After moving to Redmont Village in Greensburg in 1995, Vivian served as the activities chairperson for the condo association for 15 years. She is survived by her sons, Herman (Shirley) Blick of The Villages, Fla., and Bill (Linda) Blick of North Huntingdon; three grandchildren, Pam (Michael) Chaney of Eatonton, Ga., BJ Blick and companion Debi Altman of Winston-Salem, N.C., and Chad Blick of North Huntingdon. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Herman Blick, in 1989; and brothers, Thomas and William Hickey. Friends will be received from 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesday at JAMES C. STUMP FUNERAL HOME INC., 580 Circle Drive, Rostraver Township, 724-929-7934, www.jamesstumpfuneralhome.com, where a funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday with the Rev.
