She was born February 18, 1926, in Campbell, Missouri to the late Thomas and Myrtle Williams Horton. In 1944 Vivian was united in marriage to Owen C. McIntosh in Campbell, Missouri, where they raised their five children and she was a member of Calvary Baptist Church. She was preceded in death by her parents and husband.

Vivian's greatest love was her family. She enjoyed hosting family get-togethers, writing poetry and gifting her talent to family and friends.

After raising her children she became a licensed cosmetologist enjoying many years of helping people be their best. She always found the good in everyone and people naturally gravitated to her for words of wisdom and her cheerful heart.
