Vickey Lee Marini

Vickey Lee Marini, 65 of Wrentham and Barnstable, passed away peacefully on November 13, 2023. Beloved wife of Bob Marini, Mother to Anthony Marini and Kristina Marini, Grandmother to Corinna Lee and Robert Michael Marini. Daughter to Bob Jackson and wife Gay, Predeceased by mother Carole Hough (Capen), Sister to Louise Malloy, Sandy Fitch, Robert Jackson and Richard Jackson, Auntie to many nieces and nephews and a friend to many.

Vickey was raised in Natick, Ma. Vickey married Bob in 1988. After residing in Marlboro, Centerville, Va, and Franklin decided to settle in Wrentham. Vickey worked various positions in her career within GTE and Digital Computer before taking on her most important and successful role as stay at home mom for Anthony and Kristina. As her children grew older, Vickey entered the work force in a role which she received great satisfaction. First as a fitness instructor within the Hockomock YMCA performing personal and group training and second but most fulfilling was supporting the Livestrong program as coordinator and fitness trainer helping those live through the same disease she had learned to live with.

Vickey and Bob retired in 2017 to enjoy the life they had built with their family. Splitting time between Wrentham and Barnstable, enjoying travel to National Parks, golfing, hiking, sailing on the waters of Barnstable Harbor, crafting with the girls or just hanging out with family and friends.

Our family learned how to live with metastatic disease and did not let it alter the way we enjoyed life. Vickey is now at peace. We consider this beating the disease. The disease did not beat us.

Friends and relatives are invited to attend visitation on Saturday November 18th from 10AM – 1PM in the RJ Ross Funeral Home, 135 South Street, Wrentham, Ma. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations in Vickey's memory be made to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
