Barb, Corey and family,
When I think about Vicky and what I’d like to say; the word loyal comes to me. Vicky was like family to us, working at Arvads for 15 plus years!
Vicky was very dedicated to our business and to Jeffrey and myself. She was an extremely hard worker, and was always willing to help out when needed. She touched many of our customers lives and always made them feel like family.
She had a way about her that made everyone feel happy. She was someone I could vent to after long hours. Always the first to want to celebrate a birthday, holiday, or lift someone up when having a bad day.
I have too many stories to share; but I wanted you all to know how much we appreciated her and she will always have a place in our hearts .
Love,
Maryanne and Jeffrey Larkin

My deepest condolences, Barbara.
We must be strong, we must face up to the supreme challenge to go on living, with your loved ones unseen by your side, in your heart, an indestructible part of your soul. And I am certain that she is watching you.
Today there is an empty place at the table but you will still meet again, and together you will watch the sun dispel the darkness...

A bright star in our lives has moved to another dimension. I taught you how to drive many years ago and we had many giggles along the way (including a smashed car.)
We will miss you Vicki, you were one of a kind.

It was always a great day when Vicki and I were on the schedule together! We worked at The Holiday Inn and Arvad’s together for several years. Restaurant guests and employees were drawn to Vicki’s beautiful and bubbly personality. She had quite a list of regulars who asked for her, the food and the service was always great when Vicki came to the table. I will forever remember her for her amazing smile, and her devotion to Cory and her family. My deepest sympathies to all the friends and family who carry her in their hearts. Rest easy now Vicki.
