To Vicki's brothers (and extended family): Vicki and I were great friends and singing buddies as soon as I realized how funny she was and what a wonderful musician she was (and how well our voices blended). We did talent shows (and sometimes sang very 'interesting' interpretations of our favorite Beatle songs!), as well as a lot of special musical programs at Chartrand. She had a really lovely voice and we had a lot of fun with all of it. I remember how your parents were very kind and so supportive of our efforts! (and I remember you boys when you were little those so many years ago!) We lost touch after I moved from IN--but I thought of her often. Hers is a spirit and beauty that will always live, because of the joy and love that she brought to so many through her music and great humor. I know the voices of the angels are surrounding her now--and she is singing her heart out right along with them!! Love and Peace to you all.

Vicki was a gift to me and so many others when she moved here in high school. I have so many memories of singing at school, our homes, parks whenever we were having a good time. Whenever I sing at mass today I remember that Vicki got me started. I'm sure she's singing in heaven now. Blessings.

Jim, this is Marty Walker from GHS and I want to extend my sympathies to your family. Didn't know Vicki but she must have been very special after reading some of the comments. I'm so sorry.

Vicki was a good friend during our High School and college years. She was a very gifted and special person. I have many fond memories of those years with Vicki. I offer my sympathy to Vicki's family.

My sympathy to Vicki's family.
Whether it was camping, singing, or teaching, it was always fun to be around Vicki. She had a hearty laugh, was a great singer, and could play anything on the guitar.
Peace to all of you.

I was in Miss Beeson's 2nd grade class during the 1976-77 school year. I have thought of her often since then, and remember how fun and talented she was. I can still picture her playing the guitar at our morning weekday Masses. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

I went to high school @ Chartrand w/Vicki & was saddened to see that she had passed away. Although I haven't seen her in many years, I always thought she was such a pleasant person & fun to be around. My sympathy to your family. I know you have many warm memories of the years she was "on loan" to us. With warm regards, Mary Huser Stewart

Miss Beeson was one of my favorite teachers and the reason I began guitar lessons years ago. May all who loved her cherish the wonderful memories they had of her.

I first met Vicki through my friend Pattie then as a fellow teacher at St. Jude. She was fun and full of energy as a teacher as well as a talented guitarist. I have thought of her often through the years and know that she is at peace now in heaven.

I have many happy memories of Vicki and our gang when we were all young college students and then teachers. My prayers are with you all as she is laid to rest. I am sure God has welcomed her home.

My deepest sympathy to both David and Jim. It has been many years but remember Vicki well from the early 70's and how bright and vibrant she was before her illness. Since close to 40 years have past since I have been in touch with you I didn't realize your parents had also passed but have fond memories of them both. My entire family is deceased now and it doesn't really get easier as time goes by. I didn't realize Vicki and I were so close to the same age. I sincerely hope she finds peace with your parents in Heaven. My thoughts are with you on this day.

Beeson Family, played music with Vicki at guitar mass at OLG. She was a lovely and talented person. She has been in our prayers. I know she will be playing guitar in Heaven. Frank R. Hommel and Family, Greenwood, IN
