My condolences to those who loved Vickie. I worked with Vickie - I had so much fun being around her. She was a very beautiful person inside and out. She was the type of person that can turn a bad day into something remarkable. It's sad we have to lose those we love and those who touch the lives of others. Just remember she planted seeds in alot of people, and we will grow knowing she loved everyone she came in contact with!
God Bless you all!
Woody and Tracey (your the only two I know from her family) stay strong!

We were so sad to hear of Vickie passing. She was a very friendly person; her kindness was beyond words. We use to "hang out," go camping with her, Glenn and our families. She will be missed greatly. Our condolences to her family.

Sorry to hear about your sister, and to me a good friend. I did not hear about her passing until August. We shared a lot of memories as kids, including our birthday as we shared the same day. These things I will always remember. Time slipped through our fingers. She was a great person and will be missed. I will always keep her memories close. My love and prayers go out to you and all of her family.
