She deeply cherished her close friendships and the many laughs, conversations, and special moments they shared. Her vibrant spirit, contagious energy, and deep appreciation for life left a lasting impression on all who knew her.

Her Catholic faith was an important part of her life and guided the way she cared for others. Vicki was devoted to her family and especially cherished her role as Nana. She never missed an opportunity to attend her grandchildren's activities or spend time with them, filling their lives with love, laughter, and unwavering support.

Professionally, Vicki dedicated her career to Southeast Technical College, where she served as Senior Executive Assistant to the President. She was respected for her professionalism, dedication, and kindness.
