Vickie Hasenstaub Obituary
Vickie Faye Groom was born in 1954, in Elmira, NY, to Francis and Thelma Jean (Wilson) Groom. In 1975 she moved to Anchorage, where she met Andrew Hasenstaub; they married in 1978. They had two children.
Vickie was an employee of Alaska Children's Services and the State of Alaska. She selflessly dedicated her professional life to the physical and spiritual well being of children across the state.
Vickie is survived by her husband, Andrew Hasenstaub, of Anchorage, AK; her daughter, Andrea Hasenstaub, of San Francisco, CA; and her son, Daniel Hasenstaub, of Burbank, CA.
A celebration of her life will be held December 15, 2013, at the Anchorage Hilton. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Alaska Child and Family. For information about the celebration of life in Anchorage, please contact Daniel at 323-400-4179 / [email protected].

Here I am again. Just the other day I was smiling as I worked because Vickie came to my mind as I remembered some of our lunchtime conversations. Always hilarious, you made our work days brighter. Never forgotten.

I was one of Vickie's foster parents. She was always upbeat, caring, and warm. She will be missed by many and I'm grateful I got to know her.

I remember Vickie being funny, feisty, incredibly smart, and utterly devoted to her family. She was so proud of you both, Andrea and Dan, and she and Andy were so welcoming and tolerant of all of us teenagers who regularly invaded your house. I am so very sorry to hear of her passing. My heart goes out to all of you in the Hasenstaub family, and to everyone else who was lucky enough to be illuminated by her very bright spark.

Vickie made such a positive impression with me as I started my career in social services. She always had a smile and worked hard to make sure that the clients had the highest quality of service. Every conversation with Vicki included some highlight about her family; may the joy she shared in life be remembered always.
