Vicki and I attended Good Shepherd Lutheran during our elementary years. Small church and only 5or 6 of our age so we knew each other well. Fast forward to our 10 year high school reunion and remember we had such a lengthy special conversation. Vicki, I will talk with again in our Fathers kingdom. David Blair

Vickie & I didn't talk all the time, however, when we did, we would pick up where we left off!!! She was my friend starting in first grade. She was always a good girl. When I got a divorce in 1985, she was the VP at a bank. I opened a checking account there. I had just starting in real estate & wasn't making much money. I remember Vickie calling me a couple of times with a stern voice saying "Vicki!!" I would immediately know my account was in the negative! I would assure her I would be up there that day to put money in the account! It's funny now, wasn't then!
She was one of my most stable, consistent, loving, sweetest friends, with the most common sense that always gave her best at whatever she did. She will be missed.
I am grateful she is free from the struggles she was dealing with. I am grateful for Jim, for loving her & caring of her. She hated being a burden!
Jim, I pray God will wrap his loving arms around you & comfort you & give you peace knowing you did everything you could for Vickie. She was proud of her husband & loved being your wife.
