There are so many great memories that I have of my Aunt Vicki that I cannot pick just one. I do have to say that she was one of the greatest people I have known and she will be greatly missed. Life for all who knew her will be just a bit emptier than before. However, if I know my aunt, she will be watching over all of us as a guardian angel. I, for one, am grateful for that. Aunt Vicki I love you and will miss you.

We were so sad to hear of Vickie's passing. We didn't know that she had been ill. I remember all the parties at her Moms house I went to and we had so much fun. She was a very kind and generous lady and always thought of others ahead of herself. She will truly be missed. We are going to be out of town next week or certianly would of been there for the visitation. Jim and Holly Lynaugh
