At one point more than 200 volunteers gathered to search for Vivian.
Crews and volunteers searched through the night, but less than 24 hours later, around 7 a.m. Wednesday searchers discovered Vivian’s body in a pond about 200 yards from her home.
Mountain Grove Fire Department announced the devastating discovery on Facebook.
The Missouri Highway Patrol, Mountain Grove Police Department, and the Wright County Sheriff’s Office are currently investigating Vivian’s death. An autopsy will be performed, though investors do not suspect foul play.
When a child disappears you hope that they’ll find their way back home, so this is just absolutely horrible.
I can only pray for this family.
Share this on Facebook and offer prayers of strength and comfort to Vivian’s family.
