My beautiful friend Vicky,
We are very sad and will miss you so much. Thank you for the wonderful memories. We had so many fun times. We shared family weddings, new babies, vacations, work, "the girls" time, and so much more. I will cherish the memories until we meet again. I love you.
Steve, Garrett, Elizabeth, Adam, Cade and the entire family, we send our sympathy, love and support.
