Vickie was my teacher during my CNA training in 1990. She was an excellent teacher, a very dedicated nurse and taught me so much about caring for others. She is someone I know touched many lives and I am very sorry for your loss. She will be missed.

Vickie,your smile and laugh will stay with us and help us through this terrable sad time.You were not only a big sister but a little mother to your siblings. You also did a terrific job raising your son. He's not only an indipendant, hard working young man but one who is loving and careing of others and has a big heart like his mother. You taught him well. We will see you later, tell your Dad I miss him too. With love,
your other Mom, Sandy

Vickie, It still doesn't seem real that you are no longer with us. After visiting your Michigan family last week I am reassured that you were richer than I realized. They loved you as much as we do. Every place we went you had touched someone. A jar of jam, a blanket, baked goods, food, or just the great presence of you. You & I have always introduced ourselves as the "bookends" w/3 others between us. You will always be my bookend & I love you & miss you more than words can express. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being my best friend, big sister, & my confidant. xoxoxo
