It appears that the vrrp IP is removed when a regular kill signal is issued the the vrrpd PID. It was only when kill -9 was issued to the PID that the IP would be left on the interface.
I've also decided to use keepalived (http://keepalived.sourceforge.net/) since its vrrpd implemenation is quite nice. I would highly suggest anyone looking into vrrp with linux take a look at keepalived. Cheers.
