Vicki was a fourth generation Carroll resident and a 1963 graduate of Kuemper Catholic High School where she excelled in violin, piano, voice and showcased her strong writing skills as co-editor of the Kuemper Lance. She pursued a nearly 40-year career at Midland Financial Services in upper management specializing in commercial property appraisal and management in the Chicago and Kansas City areas, then retiring to Carroll.
Vicki dearly loved all of her many puppies, including Peppy, Farkus, and her last two, Missie and Trickie.

Vicki was preceded in death by her parents, and a sister-in-law, Roxie.
Comments of remembrance from Vicki's siblings:
From brother Joe: We will dearly miss Vicki.
From Sister Becky: She was always first; the top dog of our puppy-pile. Thank you for showing us the way. Art-f-f-f-f-f-f. May the gracious and merciful Lord let her join his choir of Angels.
Sister Pam: Vicki was a wonderful sister. She was always there when in needed something. My daughter Marie wanted to express what a loving, caring, thoughtful aunt Vicki was to her. Sending love and prayers to all of Vicki's brothers and sisters.
Sister Pat and Holli: I will always remember Vicki's wonderful smile. She was one of my best friends. She supported me in good times and bad.
