Gloria T. Runyon, Retired D.C. school principal. Board Member, Historic Vienna, Inc.: Has lived in Vienna “all my life, except being born in the District because they had a hospital.” Ruynon’s family has owned a home in Vienna, almost as long as there has been a settlement. “My family goes back to the late 1700s and family members just keep buying the same house from each other. There is a real community feeling here. People are nice to each other, and they were even during times of segregation. There are so many things to do here, I love living so near the Community Center and being able to enjoy so many local activities. We keep our small-town ambience.”
