My prayers go out to the entire family especially Kathy, Jason, and John. Also to my daughter Taryn who loved her "Momo" so much. I will cherish the many memories I have of her and the entire family. She was a fantastic mother in law as well as one of the best Canasta players I have ever played with! Vickie will always hold a special place in my heart.
Vickie may you rest in peace

I love you, Aunt Vickie. I wish life could’ve been different. But I always loved you & I always will. I always missed you. & I ALWAYS will. You taught every single woman in every single generation after you a valuable lesson or two that I guarantee has carried them thru their lives, just like me. Even though I haven’t had you in my life for 21 (TWENTY ONE!!) years now… I have always ALWAYS carried you with me. Tell dad I miss him please.
