Vivian Rosell (Rogers) wife of Albert Bromberg, died 11 March 1989, Headsburg, CA. She was the daughter of Willie Bryan and Maude Belle (Wright) Rogers Born Vivian Rose Schuster on July 28, 1924, in Bancroft, Kingsbury County, South Dakota. Her parents, Maude and William B. Schuster decided to give up farming and moved to Southern California in January, 1930. The family decided to settle in Highland, five miles east of San Bernardino. Vivian attended grade and junior high school in Highland and senior high school in San Bernardino, graduating in January of 1942.
She met her future husband, Albert, who had just arrived with a U.S. Army Air Corps Observation Squadron, at a picnic in Azusa, CA, in February. They were subsequently married on August 28, 1942 in Las Vegas, Nevada. After following Albert on his several duty assignments in the deep south and southwest, she came back home to Highland when Albert was sent overseas with a Tactical Reconnaissance Group.
After the war was over they settled in Burbank, CA, for six months before moving to Richmond, Ca. in 1946. Albert found employment with Standard Oil Co. of CA, and Vivian worked for the Parr Richmond Terminal Corp. and for the Richmond Teachers Credit Union finally putting in a few years with the Cortese Brothers Lincoln Mercury Auto Dealership before moving to Sonoma with Albert in July of 1965. She then found employment with the Big Three Market in Boyes Hot Springs as their bookkeeper. After working there for several years, she worked at several Savings and Loan organizations.
When Albert decided to retire from the Chevron Research Co. in 1977, Vivian also eagerly retired. The move to Healdsburg took place in 1979. Our friends Betty and Ralph Hodge had moved there several years before and on our visits to them we decided that Healdsburg was the ideal place to settle. Vivian loved to travel and visited most of the United States and parts of Great Britain and Europe, Mexico, and Central America. When her mother died in 1983, she became interested in tracing her ancestors and before she became ill, this hobby consumed much of her spare time which she most thoroughly enjoyed. She was a pleasure to be with and will be sorely missed by her husband Albert: and her many friends.
