Vicki was always friendly and a really nice person to talk to and be around. I did not know her that well even though we were cousins. She was very thoughtful, smart, and loved those grandkids and John. She continued working putting them ahead of her own health issues. I am sorry for your loss and hope time heals your pain with the help of the Holy Spirit.

My heart goes out to the entire family. Words can not express how deeply sadden I am for your loss. Vicki was an amazing woman who loved her family more than anything.
There was never a conversation that didn't include something special about her grandchildren. They all meant the world to her.
She will be missed tremendously.
May God be with you at this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Cindy
