Richard and Kelly, Only last night did we learn of Vickie's home going. Our hearts hurt so for you!
The very best of memories will always remain with us of our years together and of how proud Vickie was of her family. Vickie always had a positive word to share and loved being a minister partner with her husband. We are lifting you in prayer for comfort.

We regret we were unable to be with you in your time of need. Please know our thoughts and prayers have been, and will continue to be, with you. Although Alan probably knew Vicki, I only met her a couple times and remember her as a happy, smiling, very warm and friendly woman. Our deepest condolences to all of you, family and friends - of whom, I am sure she had many. She will be greatly missed. “Memories are the legacy of love.” May your many beautiful, loving memories and happy echoes of laughter and joy help ease the sadness and pain. With heartfelt sympathy, Alan and Paulette Smith##imported-begin##Alan and Paulette Smith##imported-end##

Richard and Kelly and family, You know how much we have loved you all. Vicky was such a special person to us from back in the days of schooling at IWU when she babysat for Andrew and we would share meals together as families. I always knew we could pick up our friendship right where we left off when we would see each other with such big gaps of time in between. We also had such a wonderful time of staying with you guys up north after you were in the ministry - during one of the few vacations Tim would allow himself. I'm sure he was in the crowd of witnesses to welcome Vicky into the kingdom. I love you guys and pray God's comfort into you lives in the days, months, and years ahead. Love, Sheryl##imported-begin##Sheryl Landis##imported-end##

Victoria was an inspiration and help in so many ways. She had a deep care for everybody's concerns, and always put God first in her life. Even with a lot of physical disabilities, she encouraged many people overlooking her own needs. It has truly been a blessing for us to be her friends. She will be greatly missed. She loved her church family as well as her own family. Her life touched so many other lives.##imported-begin##Bruce & Phyllis Groeneveld##imported-end##
We are so very sorry for your loss. We are remembering you in prayer tonight, tomorrow and in the days ahead.##imported-begin##Scott & Rosalyn Turcott##imported-end##
