I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Vickers through her son Don. I was the GM secretary for the AAFES Fort Bragg Exchange and Don worked in our Administrative office. Don's dad or his Mom would pick him up from work and also from AAFES events such as the Veteran's Day parade or Christmas parties. I often waited with Don once the events were over until his ride came. I found your parents to be loving, caring, considerate people, especially your Mom. She always had a wonderful smile and a kind word. I always enjoyed the occasions she and I had to talk. Please accept my sincere sympathy in the loss of your Mother. I know she will be missed but her greatest hope will be fulfilled when her children and grandchildren are reunited with her someday in heaven. I'm certain that her love, life's lessons and her caring ways will continue through all of you. May each of you be blessed.
