    Vicky was a dear neighbor and friend from the time we moved here Dec 2002. Usually speaking over the fence or catching each other in passing. We enjoyed catching up on each other’s grandchildren. She will be missed. We will hold the family close in our thoughts and prayers as they venture on with only her memory.
