Vivian M. Tully, 92, of Lewistown, passed away Thursday, Sept. 24, 2026, at William Penn Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center.
Born May 4, 1934, in Burnham, she was the daughter of the late Cletus L. and Ethel Ivon (Dorsett) Ford. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Francis P. Tully, and her sisters, Anna Ford, Evelyn Ivon Harpster, D. Jean Dalby, Deanna L. Rhodes.
She is survived by her children, Treena L. Wagner, of Etters, and Joseph L. Tully, of Ohio; two grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; and four great-great-grandchildren.
Vivian was a longtime member of Walnut Street United Methodist Church and the Textile Workers Union. A high school graduate, she spent 30 dedicated years working in the cutting room at Arrow Shirt Factory.
Family was always her greatest priority. Deeply religious, Vivian cherished her church and her church family, finding comfort and joy in her faith. She especially loved listening to Gaither's Gospel Music, which brought her peace throughout her life.
A graveside service will be held at 1 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2026, at Birch Hill Cemetery with Pastor Chris Lutz officiating.
