Vickie exceeded in Customer Service because of her warm and caring personality which gave her the opportunity to make numerous lifelong friends throughout her career.

Vickie was loved and admired by so many friends and family members. She was not only beautiful on the outside but an overall beautiful, loving, and kind-hearted person. She was always there to help anyone who needed a helping hand. Anyone who met her loved her sweet and caring personality.

She loved to travel the world with her husband and loved visiting friends and family with every chance she got. She loved life to the fullest always with a beautiful smile.

This is a celebration of her beautiful life, not a mourning, because that is how Vickie would have wanted to be remembered. She is with her Heavenly Father and will be missed so very much by all who knew her.
