BARTLESVILLE
EXAMINER-ENTERPRISE
BARTLESVILLE, WASHINGTON CO, OK
(permission granted)
Vivian Beatrice Dale, age 94, long-time
Bartlesville resident, beloved wife, mother
and grandmother, departed this world for
Heaven on Tuesday, October 4th, 2016 at
Clarehouse in Tulsa. Vivian was born
December 8th, 1921, in Medford, Oklahoma, to
the late Otice Lee and Ada (Schulze) Jewitt.
Vivian is survived by daughters, Denise
Fuller and husband, Craig, of Circleville,
Ohio, and Marsha Grindle and husband, Scott,
of Tulsa; grandchildren, Anna Grindle
Hartung and husband, Matt, of Tulsa and
Allison Grindle of Dallas, Texas; and
great-grandchild, Amy Hartung.
She is also survived by sisters-in-law,
Phyllis Dotson and husband, Ray, of Tulsa
and JoAnne Teegardin and husband, John, of
Taos Canyon, New Mexico; brothers-in-law,
Doyle Moore of Tucson, Arizona and Paul T.
Bryant of Arden, North Carolina; and many
loving nieces, nephews and relatives.
Vivian was preceded in death by her parents;
husband, Glenn H. Dale; daughter, Laura Dale
Plaster; and four sisters, Ruth Burgin,
Laverna Belle Cole, Lois Fern McCabe and
Vera Mae Moore.
Vivian graduated from Carney, Oklahoma High
School in 1939, and moved to Bartlesville
where she attended and graduated from
Bartlesville Junior College while living
with her aunt and uncle. After graduation,
Vivian went to work at Phillips Petroleum
Company as an administrative assistant. She
took a room at a local boarding house that
also served meals to local young men. One of
those young men was Glenn H. Dale, a
Phillips Petroleum chemical engineer from
Oklahoma City. Both Vivian and Glenn rode
the train to go visit their respective
parents. Between the meals and the long
train rides together, Vivian and Glenn fell
in love and married in August 1947. That
life journey continued for 66 years, until
Glenn's death in May of 2014.
Vivian and Glenn were blessed with three
daughters. Their community life centered
around East Cross United Methodist Church
where Vivian served for years in the
Keenagers Ministry to Senior Citizens and as
wedding reception coordinator. She also
served in the Iris Garden Club following her
creative passion for flower arranging. She
was greatly appreciated for her hospitality,
particularly her holiday cooking and baking.
Vivian and Glenn were also very active in
the formation and ongoing support of the
Samaritan Counseling Center in Bartlesville.
In retirement, Glenn and Vivian enjoyed
traveling. They attended over 25 Elder
Hostels. International travel included trips
to Africa, Australia, China, Turkey and
Western Europe. During those travels Vivian
refined her photography skills. Once no
longer able to travel, one of her greatest
joys was hearing about trips friends and
relatives had taken.
Vivian and Glenn moved into Tall Grass
Estates in 2011. Vivian very much enjoyed
her friends at Tall Grass and was
particularly thankful for the love and
support she received when Glenn passed in
May 2014. Last December, having been a
resident of Bartlesville for 75 years,
Vivian moved to Aberdeen Heights Assisted
Living in Tulsa to be near daughter and
caregiver, Marsha Grindle.
The most common description of Vivian was
"she is such a sweet lady". She was
determined to be as independent as possible.
Yet as life became increasingly difficult,
Vivian maintained her sweet spirit. She will
be missed.
Visitation for Vivian will be held on
Thursday and Friday from 9:00 AM-8:00 PM in
the Arnold Moore & Neekamp Funeral Home, 710

Methodist Church Pastor Jeff Burress
