I am so sorry to learn of Vicki's passing from th dreadful virus. My condolence to all of Vicki's family.

Vicki was my neighbor prior to her move to the Heritage facility. Through the years Vicki visited my family many times. We had many long chats. She always had loving stories of her brother's children. One thing that was always special when Vicki and her mother (Mary) would bring me one of the special breads they made during the holidays. Vicki was a very kind and caring person.

My thoughts and prayers for the family.

I am remembering you as a small child, I spent hours babysitting you after school most days. I taught you to swim in our pool in our backyard and pulled you from the pool in the middle of winter when you decided Christmas would be a good time for a swim. You were only three at the time, the next summer Aunt Mary brought you three times a week to learn to swim. My fond memory of walking into the house to soap bubbles filling the hall after school one day makes me laugh. My Grandmother thought you were sleeping, you fooled her and poured a bottle of dish soap in the toilet and flushed it over and over. You were a very precocious toddler but you grew into one of the most lovely souls I have ever known. I am heartbroken the virus took you, I love you. Your Cousin.

TJ, Judy and Brian:

I was so sorry to learn of Vicki's death. Joan & family and I are remembering all of you in our thought and prayers at this sad time. The Snarzyk family was our next door neighbors in Marion. Vicki and Joan were about the same age and played a lot together. They were good neighbors. May she rest in peace.

I knew Vicki at Heritage when I brought Communion and said the Rosary each month. Several years ago she stopped coming to Rosary and did not want to receive Communion but then last year she once again asked to receive Communion and returned to our Rosary. We were thrilled to have her join us and even had a birthday party for her in January. I pray that at the time of her death she was at peace and had hope in eternal life. Rest in peace, good friend.

She always had time for a little chat if we were both outside.
As a two time organ recipient, it is wonderful to know her heart was in the right place.
Prayers for your family in this time of sorrow.

Judy and family. I was so sorry to hear about Vicki. We were neighbors for years. She and your Mom would walk by the house and on a few occasions my son and I helped chase down an ornery dog. They loved their dogs. Thinking of you. Debbie Wallace

Sincere sympathy to all the family for your great loss of Vicki. Our Martin family has always been so grateful for the great care she gave our mother, Clara Martin, so that she was able to live in her own home near Fairfax. We hope many happy memories will lighten the days ahead. Sincerely, Clara Martin children, the late Rita, Mary Ellen, George, Rosanne, Margaret, Elaine, and Dolores
