Vickie was my cousin but was so close to my dad's age that she was more of an aunt and a mother figure. She got me through my teenage years when I needed a woman and mad did she have some "tough love" lol she was blunt Betty and never pulled her punches...which I loved about her. Her fire will be missed. RIP lady.

Vickie aka/ Ms. A, was the world's best mother in law anyone could ask for. She had a heart of gold, a strong lady who loved her kids. I was blessed by her for having my ex wife candice. I will miss Ms. A more then anyone will know. I am thankful I was able to be there with her till the end. I will miss our little talks, how I use to joke with you. I love you.
