Vickie Mae Mason Bilden was called to His Kingdom by our Lord on April 25th, 2024, in Fort Collins, Colorado.

Vickie was born to Edward Leo Mason and Wanda (Drake) Mason on April 5, 1950, in Ouray, Colorado. They preceded her in death at a young age, and also a younger sister, Tammy. Vickie attended grade school in Ouray and graduated from high school in Montrose, Colorado. She attended college in Havre, Montana, at Addams State in Alamosa, and in Gunnison, Colorado. She loved to travel and had a golden touch with flower gardening. Vickie loved her little Italian Greyhounds having 8 in the last 20 years.

Vickie is survived by her daughter, Shelly Bilden Oakes, of Braintree, Massachusetts, and her life partner Paul Gabriel, of Fort Collins, Colorado. She also leaves 5 brothers, Ed Mason of Reno, Nevada, Jack Mason of Dolores, Colorado, Bill Mason of Olathe, Colorado, Robert Mason of El Paso, Texas, John Korsage of McMinnville, Oregon, and a remaining sister  Beckie Mason Avila of Montrose, Colorado, five nieces, 6 nephews, and numerous great nieces and nephews.

Vickie touched the hearts of many and will forever be in our hearts till we are united in the Kingdom of God.

The Lord is my Shepherd; there is nothing I shall lack.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me to tranquil streams.

He restoreth my soul, guiding me in the paths of righteousness so that his name may be glorified.

Even though I wander through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are at my side, with Thy rod and Thy staff that comfort me.

You spread a table for me on the presence of mine enemies.
You anointest my head with oil; my cup overflows.

Only goodness and kindness will follow me all the days on my life,  and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever and ever.

Vickie will be laid to rest in Ouray, Colorado at a later date.
