Christopher P. Vivier

Christopher “Chris” Patrick Vivier left this world suddenly on a Sunday afternoon on March 19, 2023 at the age of 50 from unexpected cardiac arrest. Even though cardiac arrest took him away from this world, his loving heart leaves a beacon of light for everyone that knew and was close to him. 

Chris loved to make others laugh and smile, and seeing other people happy brought joy to his life. He was known for making his family and friends laugh and smile and he loved to come up with family nicknames for his loved ones. 

While spending his time in Washington, Chris met Christy and they had two children: Alaina and Amaris.  Although this relationship wasn’t permanent, they remained civil for their children whom they both adored. He also survived by his children Cassandra and Andre who he loved very much.

Chris met the love of his life, Lavonna, 18 years ago, and together they raised four children: Aryonna, Hunter, Chloe and their grandson, Ezra. Aryonna and Hunter reside and attend school in Bismarck. Chris was a huge part of their lives, and he will be dearly missed by all of his children.  

Chris will be honored and remembered through a private Celebration of Life Service.
