In Memory of Don & Vivian Wallar
A Memorial to My Loving Parents
On January 18, 2001, I lost my beautiful mother when
she was murdered walking from my father's hospital bed to her car.
10 days later my father died of heart failure.
This page has some details of the event and will forever stand as
a memorial to both of my parents. Over 1,100 people attended my mother's
service and I receive mail and calls from all of the world from people that
had been touched by my mother's kindess and love.If you take anything away with
you after visiting this site, my wish would be that you remember how
precious life is and you tell the wonderful people in your life how
much you love them. My parents died knowing of my love. My mom
and dad live on in my heart and I am thankful for each person in my life.
Woman Stabbed to Death in Parking Lot
at Area HospitalJanuary 21, 2001 By David Bradvica
Staff Writer
It
wasn't the bad news Don Wallar II thought he would hear. He picked
up the telephone Friday morning, expecting to hear that his father,
Don, ill with diabetes, had taken a turn for the worse. The news was
much worse than that. He was told his mother, Vivian, had been
stabbed to death the night before, in the parking lot of San Antonio
Community Hospital in Upland just moments after the San Gabriel
schoolteacher had finished visiting her sick husband.
So
on Saturday, while Upland police continued to investigate the
55-year-old Upland woman's murder, friends and family members
gathered at the Wallar's home to mourn her death. "She was the
centerpiece of our family," Don Wallar II said of his mother, a
longtime elementary school teacher who had spent much of the past
two years caring for her ill husband and her now-deceased
mother-in-law.
The shock of her sudden death also extended to San Gabriel,
where she had taught with her husband at a Seventh-day Adventist
school for the past decade. The man who hired her, San Gabriel
Academy Elementary School principal Ken Phillips, had to break the
news to students and staff. "We all knew Mr. Wallar was not doing
well," Phillips said in a telephone interview. "I think the faculty
expected to hear some bad news about him. To tell them she was
killed, it was a real shock. There was a lot of uncontrolled
emotion." Phillips also called the parents of all of Vivian Wallar's
first-grade students to inform them of her death. "To a person, they
all remarked on what a loving person she was," he said. "We will be
dealing with a lot of grief on campus Monday."
Vivian Wallar's ailing husband, who retired from teaching
last March because of heart problems and other diabetes-related
complications, received the news with extra medication designed to
calm him, Don Wallar II said. The 55-year-old father remains in the
hospital's coronary care unit. "He's handling it OK," his son said.
"Right now, he's doing the best he can."
Vivian Wallar, a Florida native, won a $1,000 award for
outstanding teaching two years ago. More recently, she and her
husband had cared for his ailing mother, who died in October. Even
with her husband's illness, she still found time for others,
Phillips said. "There wasn't anybody she wouldn't help," he said.
"She epitomized Southern hospitality." Her death has prompted
hospital officials to beef up security and lighting in the parking
lot, which is surrounded by a quiet neighborhood.
San Antonio Community Hospital officials and a family friend
also have offered a $25,000 reward for information leading to the
capture of her killar. Police described the suspect as a Latino in
his 40s, 5-foot-9 and between 180 to 200 pounds. The assailant had
medium-length combed-back hair and a mustache, and police said he
wore dark pants and a dark, zipper-front jacket. Anyone with
information about the attack should call the Upland Police
Department at (909) 946-7624.
Popular San Gabriel School Teacher
SlainJanuary 23, 2001 By Emanuel Parker Staff

SAN GABRIEL - Grief counselors talked to students Monday at
San Gabriel Academy Elementary School, where students were reacting
to the murder last week of a respected teacher. Vivian Wallar, 55,
of Upland was stabbed to death at 10:15 p.m. Thursday after visiting
her seriously ill husband at  San Antonio Community Hospital in Upland.
A
first-grade teacher at the Seventh-day Adventist school for the past
30 years, Wallar was killed in the hospital parking lot. Wallar and
other relatives and friends were heading for their cars after
visiting hours when she was attacked. Several witnesses heard her
screams and saw her struggling with her assailant, but she was
stabbed before anyone could come to her aid. School officials didn't
tell students about her death Friday, but called parents and asked
them to break the news to their children over the weekend. Parents
who picked up their children Friday after school noticed many
teachers in tears. Parents who asked were told about Wallar.
Wallar's husband, Don, 55, was a popular fifth-grade teacher
at the school until he retired in March due to heart problems and
diabetes-related complications. He has been hospitalized in the
coronary care unit since Jan. 15. A parent said the husband had lost
a leg to diabetes and was known to entertain his students by
removing and displaying his false leg in the classroom. Wallar and
her husband had cared for his ailing mother, who died in October.
The couple has two grown sons. Hospital officials and a
friend of the family are offering a $25,000 reward for information
leading to the capture of the killar. Upland police describe the
suspect as a Latino in his 40s, 5 feet 9 inches and between 180 and
200 pounds. He had medium-length combed-back hair and a mustache,
and police said he wore dark pants and a dark zipper-front jacket.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Upland Police
Department at (906) 946-7624.
