Adams County Fair Remembers Vivian K. (Loos) Dickerman
Vivian was born on January 7, 1945 in Quincy to the late Charles and Mary (Hoebing) Loos.
She graduated with the Class of '63 at Payson Seymour High School. She married John Dickerman on September 28, 1968 in St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church. They had just celebrated 50 years of marriage when Vivian passed from this Earth.
Together they welcomed four children, Shawn, Deanne, Randal and Janel and many grandchildren.
Vivian loved the Adams County Fair. You could normally find her attending hog shows cheering on her family. You could also see her name displayed at the Domestic Arts Building on a yearly basis. Vivian was known for her award-winning and famous tea ring. She took home many blue ribbons for that tasty delight.
Vivian was an active member of St. Edward Catholic Church in Mendon, where she enjoyed singing alto in the choir. Taking pride in her work as a residential housecleaner, she grew long-lasting relationships with her "families".
She helped her husband John run the family farm. She was also an avid volunteer. She served the community as a Little League coach, PTA president, Creative Learning Center board of directors, and as the Loraine Fall Festival pageant director. She passed down her love and dedication for the community to her four children, who are active in community service today.
In her "Glory Days", Vivian was a softball infielder. She could be seen at many Mustang and Raider sporting events and music concerts of her children and grandchildren.
