Vicki Lou Picciano

Grandma,
I miss you sooooooooo much. Not a day goes by without wishing you were here. I want you to see how I have turned my life around and became a better person.
I wanted you there when I graduated and started college. I miss coming over to the apartment at the meadows and spending the weekend with you just hanging out together even if that just meant watching dr phil and judge judy on tv. Half way through the shows we both would fall sleep on the red sofas. I miss that you always gave me a big hug and kiss on the cheek everytime I saw you and always telling me how beautiful I am and proud you are of me. You always said if I loss some weight I would be a knockout. I wish I could have just have another day with you. Its so hard waking up every morning knowing your not there, I can't call you on the phone and come over to your apt to see you. Because your not there.

Paul, Patrick and John,
My deepest sympathy on your loss. I know how close you all were to your mother. As you know I was a friend of your mother's since she was my neighbor on Upton Avenue in Richfield way back in 1960. Her son Paul and and my son Tim were the same age.We remained friends over the years losing contact from time to time but always finding each other again. I will truly miss her and our long conversations about everything.

Pat, Paul, and John,
I just learned of your mother's passing today. Regret that I did not know of her passing. She was a cherished and dear friend to Jean and I. I pray that your hearts continue to be filled with the wonderful memories of joyful times you had together as you celebrate her life well-lived.

Vicki, For days I've wondered how I could say good-bye to my friend of 42 years. Today, I knew it wasn't possible. You may be gone from us, but your friendship lives in me forever. To say I will miss you, is inadequate. I can't imagine my life without you in it. Love, Jacquie

John-

I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. From what I've read she sounds like an incredible woman. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be there tonight...but know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathy to my nephews,Paul,Patrick,John and family in the passing of their Mother and often best friend. I was her only brother. We have always been close. I got to see her several times during the past summer. I would like to apologize for not being there, but health prevents me from traveling. I am sure Vicki being a Christian is in a better place with Pat,Mother,Father, and others she loved. She will be missed. God Bless

I feel very blessed to be able to say she was a friend. I will truly miss her smiling face and her funny stories. To her family, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I have many great memories of spending time with the Picciano family when I was young. And more recently when my mom(Nancy Kerr) and Vicki came over for a boat ride and we were able to talk about old times. Vicki was always so positive and fun to be around. She will truly be missed.

John, Deb, Patrick and Lisa:
Your mom was a great, fun lady. She told me this summer how great you "kids" were to her. My sympathy to all of you, but she is free from all her suffering now.

To the family of Vicki Picciano:

Please accept our sympathy for your loss. It was an honor to be with Vicki during her final days. May your memories bring you comfort.

Sincerely,
The Fairview Hospice Team

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

So very sorry to hear this news. You will be in my prayers - prayers for the Lord to provide peace, comfort, and joy from the many stories of good times.

Mom,
I am so blessed that god chose you to be my mom. I will miss you dearly. At times I am very saddened by your passing but much more importantly you will live on forever in my heart and thoughts, which brings me great joy. I am also comforted by the fact that your spirit is with me always now instead of just when we were together. I love you very much and that love will never die or fade away.

Your son,
John

I grew up a couple doors from the Picciano’s they were like a second family to us, Vicki was like my second mother. For 40 years I grew accustom to hearing Vicki say “Mattie you are such a great kid”. She said it so many times that I eventually believed her and became the man I am today. I love you Vicki and will miss you deeply.

Thank you for believing in me!!

I will always remember Vicki Lou! She was a favorite cousin of my mother, Muriel Betker Walker. Also Vicki's parents were my Godparents. Vicki and her family have always been special to me. Vicki was a wonderful person and will be missed.

My deepest sympathy to all her family.

Sincerely,
Jane & Jack Barton

Paul, Patrick, John,
I'm very sad that we've lost a great lady in all our lives. She had a very important part in our family growing up with of many happy memories. I'll never forget growing up with family gatherings and when someone would call for Vicki and asking which one? Big or little? I'm honored to be named after my godmother!

Dear Paul, Patrick, John and Family,

It was our privilege to provide care for your beloved mother. We share in your grief and send you our love.
