I just found out about this in the last few minutes. I remember Mrs. K as being "Aunt Vickie" to the Warnick kids, one of whom - Tim - was the de facto best man at my 1996 wedding, at the beach or "up the Neck" in Ipswich, MA during a previous lifetime of mine.
She was also "Mom" to AJ (at the time, he was just "Ahmad" to me), Kathie, and Karin with whom I hung out on the couple of occasions when the family made it to the Warnicks' beach house.
Good times were had by all iat those moments...I hope; for me, some great memories are wrapped up in those long-ago experiences. Much belated though it may be, RIP Mrs. Kazimi.

I was a Mary Kay client of Vicki from the beginning of her career until she retired, and I enjoyed our visits over the years when I picked up my order. We had a lot in common, but now have a final connection. My husband, Bill, passed away on the same day, and we both were married 62 years. Vicki was lovely and will be missed. I send my deepest sympathy.
