Her love for her family was unmatched. Her smiles and laughter always lit up a room. She was larger than life and her bling was always shining. Shopping was one of her favorite hobbies. The Caribbean was a destination she loved. Her heart was big and no matter the situation she was always willing to help whoever needed her. Vicky will be fondly remembered and dearly missed by all those who knew and loved her.
