Dear Robert and family, Our family goes back to the early 1950's on Garden Ridge Rd. in Catonsville, MD We had a long, long connection and I remember adoring Vickie as a young girl. She was always so sweet to me.
I remember how excited we were when she and Robert became engaged and married. Soon the children started arriving and Vickie was the most wonderful mother.
It's hard for me to believe that she is gone. Please know that I hold her in my mind with the fondest of memories. My prayers are with all of your family.

I did not know Mrs Bae, but I have had the pleasure and honor of working with her son Rob for several years. She and her husband obviously did a great job of raising a wonderful man who is well respected and liked by all of us at Duke Energy. He often spoke very fondly of his mother and growing up in the Baltimore area, and he was clearly very close to her. I know he misses her dearly, but her good qualities will carry on in Rob and in his work. My thoughts and prayers go out to Rob and his family during this difficult time.

I only know Mrs. Bae through her son, Rob. I know Rob loves his Mom, and his Dad, dearly. They raised him to be a caring and hard working gentleman. Rob has spoken of wonderful summers spent with family at the beach as a child and as a adult, obviously cherishing the memories of those days with family.
I pray that you are able to take comfort in your many memories of times together and feel God's peace knowing that your beloved mother is no longer in pain.
