Vick is survived, in addition to his wife, by his children: Scott K. Brinton, Elizabeth Brinton Gerthoffer (Karl), and Timothy Brinton; 13 grandchildren; 17 great grandchildren, and 4 sisters. He was predeceased by his two infant sons, John and Kenneth, and a daughter-in-law, Kathy (Absher) Brinton.
