Vi was a dear lady who was always ready to help and assist. She was a friend of my mom and dad. Anyone who knew her had only the kindest things to say about Vi. God rest her soul....

We're saddened to read of the passing of another one of the pillars of St. Michael's Church. Great memories of Vi and all who have gone before her. She was a wonderful woman with a huge heart and will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
