We are saddened to learn of the passing away of Vicki. She was all that her obituary stated and will never be forgotten. She helped taking care of my Mom and was such a loving, caring person. She is now at peace with the Lord in her Heavenly Home
To Vickie’s family, I’m sorry we won’t be able to come to the funeral home or mass as we will be out of town but I wanted to tell you how sorry we are to hear of Vickie’s death and how much we will miss her. She was always such a joy when she took care of my grandmother. I can still see them playing cards (and acccusing each other of cheating) and sitting on the front porch telling jokes and laughing. I’m sure that’s exactly what they’re doing now. I will call or write when we return. Love, Sharon
To the only grandma I ever knew, you will be greatly missed and always remembered. Love, Perry
