Howland– Vivi Camelli, 77, of Warren, passed away Wednesday morning, September 1, 2021 at the Hospice House in Poland.

Vivi was born on August 10, 1944 in Chios, Greece, the daughter of Bill and Despina (Koutsounadis) Kalogeras.

Vivi and her family came to Warren in 1955. She was a 1964 graduate of Warren Harding High School and went on to become a U.S. citizen in 1966. Vivi graduated from cosmetology school and was a skilled cosmetologist for many years. After thirty years of service, she retired from Packard Electric.

In addition to her work career and being a proud homemaker, Vivi was an excellent gardener and fabulous cook – making all homemade meals and passing recipes down to younger generations. She also liked working on jumbo puzzles and going out to eat with her family.  Her greatest love was spending quality time with those dearest to her, especially her grandchildren. Vivi was one of a kind and touched everyone's life who knew and loved her. She was an angel on earth and will be profoundly missed.
