Dear Ron and Family,
I just learned of Vicki's death and want to extend my sympathy. Vicki and I developed a friendship at UNO as Alpha Xi Delta sorority sisters. We lost contact in the 80's as I moved to Michigan and both our family demands increased. I had always hoped to reconnect and know I will when I reach that place where Vicki now resides.

I remember when Vicki met you, Ron, and your subsequent marriage. She was so very happy to be in relationship with you! That happiness radiated in all her interactions!

May you and your family heal and find peace!

To the Kaspar families, Kaspar was a wonderful woman, always forgiving. She actually helped me also in my classes. I am sending prayers and thoughts to the Kaspar family. Very loving woman, I loved her for being there. Vicki had called my Grandma after my uncle Kason had died. She had him when he was in school. Millard South will always be a family and she will always be never replaced with other memories. I am terribly sorry. -Honoraya Stuart. Millard South Student.

Sincere sympathy to the Kaspar and Boysen families and everyone affected by this sad, tragic day. Thank you Mrs. Kaspar and all current and former teachers and administrators that have guided our youth through good times and bad. You have been friends, teachers, mentors, parents, counselors, providers of guidance and always try 100% to help even when some chose different solutions. May you rest in peace and thank you.

Miriam, Paula, Ron and family, I was in the class of '66 with Miriam. Later, I had the pleasure of working with Vicky on a committee, when I was in the Millard Public Schools. She was such a gifted educator, as well as a kind, compassionate woman. Vicky embodied all the qualities in the Notre Dame Academy school song.

May God bless all of you and give you strength during this time. She was truly a woman who made a difference in the lives of students.

My son was touched by this tragedy at Millard South. He went to his principal and vice principal to talk about what had happened in Omaha. He thanked them for their service. They thanked him for his thoughtfulness, and told him that it is students like him that makes them love what they do! God bless all the "Mrs. Kaspers" that make such a positive difference in our children's lives!

Dear Members of the Kaspar and Boysen Families,
My prayers reach out to you constantly in these days of sorrow and pain. I have read many tributes to Vicki as a great mom, friend, and teacher. I give tribute to her as a great student whom I taught at Notre Dame Academy. She and her class of '70 were among my favorites. I remember Vicki for her dedication to tasks, her determination, and that gentle smile that warmed everyone. I am not surprised that she was a great teacher because she was a great student. God bless you all with great peace in these days.

Vickie and Paula were sorority sisters of mine at UNO. I remember Vickie as one who was warm, friendly and sincere. I know she leaves a dynamic legacy.

I am not a member of the Millard South Community, but have lived in Omaha all my life. I have heard such wonderful things about Dr. Kaspar these last few days. It sounds like she loved her job and loved the students she worked with. I hope her family finds peace knowing the paths of so many students were changed for the better because of her. Rest in Peace.

To the Kaspar Family,
I'm a teacher in the Omaha area. I would just like to say thank you for lending your wife, mother, sister to the Omaha area. She gave her life literally to do the job she was put here on earth to do. Her deeds were not done in vain. There will be many students who realize what it was she did over the years to touch them. Her dedication to the job of educating young people shows that it takes heart to educate. Thank You Dr. Kaspar for doing a job well done!

As difficult as this tragedy is to understand take comfort in the fact that your Vicki is at rest in our Lords heavenly kingdom. Also take comfort in all the love so many had for her. I did not know her but with all the wonderful comments that have been made on her behalf she must have been someone very special and she will be sorely missed.

January 9, 2011

Gone but never forgotten-Dr. Kaspar you were an inspiration to me while I was a student at MSHS.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
God Bless the Kaspar family as Vicki's love will remain forever in your hearts!

We extend our deepest sympathies to the entire Kaspar family. I graduated from Millard in 78(South now) and all three of our boys are Patriots: Ben 05, Kyle 09, and Blake is currently a Freshman. We know how deeply commited Vicki was to Millard South; it seemed like she supported every event there! We appreciated her counsel on AP classes, and Ron, as Kyle's chemistry teacher, you had an impact on his medicine career choice. We certainly hope you return to Millard South when you are ready. She will truly be missed. Even though life, as you know it, will never be the same, we know you will cling to the promise of a blessed reunion with her one day! May God comfort you and lift you up as you deal with her loss. We personally know how the power of prayer can and will strengthen each of you. God bless,
Kathy Andersen and family
