Vicki and I had a lot of fun in high school. She was always so lovable. She will always hold a special place in my heart.

I had not seen Vicki for many years-but revisited at the early stages of her-illness-we both spoke of "the old days"She also shared with me the ONE thing she wanted most before she would die-HOPE YOU GOT IT!!!

Dear family of Vicki,
I am so sorry for your loss of your daughter & sister. I worked with Vicki at Silkscapes 24 years ago. I was new to Des Moines, so Vicki showed me around. We had lots of fun together. I helped, along with Judy Mease at Linda's wedding by picking up after the reception. I met my husband 20 years ago, and lost touch with Vicki, because she was my single girlfriend. I am so sorry she had to fight cancer for 5 years. I know she is not suffering anymore. Vicki, we had fun! See you when I get there! Your friend always, Tammy Kruse Coles.

Sorry for your loss isn't big enough to cover this one. Gosh darn we're going to miss her! She was such a driving force and SUCH a fighter. With her unique voice, laugh and always a viewpoint, life was never boring when she was around.
Her battle was hard and now she's at peace. I am truly blessed to have been part of this extended family. I wouldn't exchange our childhood times and memories for ALL the gold in the world! Thank you.

Your battle with the disease is over and you may rest in peace forever free from pain. May your family remember the good times that were shared with them during your life. May the Lord give you peace and walk with you in the gardens in Heaven. I know Vicki through her brother David Wicker. Doug Johnson and my wife Barbara also send their prayers and thought to you in your time of grief.

My sincerest condolences on the loss of Vicki. The big family gatherings of yesteryear are never far from my mind when I think of Vicki, and within her personality, she retained that youthful joy and love of fun that we all saw in her back then. She will be missed, but her hard battle is done-may she truly be in peace. Deb Gordley, one of Vicki's many cousins
