My favorite story about Vicki goes like this:  Our Small Group from Bear Creek Baptist Church had a party and Vicki carried a darling little black beaded purse.  I tried to convince her that I needed that purse!  The next Sunday morning, she had a present for me - that purse in light blue.  She said she had one in every color.  She was such a wonderful gal and had such a sweet spirit!  She will missed by all!  Hugs to Tom and the family.

Tom and Family, You are all in our daily thoughts and prayers.  We will always cherish each and every memory of Vicki.  We wish we could be there to honor her life--God so has her in His loving arms. 

Much Love,
  Lanell & Floyd

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

When I think of Aunt Vicki I see her with a big smile on her face and hear her wonderful laugh.

I was honored to know Vicki.  She was a great person and friend to all.  She will certainly be missed.  My prayers are with you, Tom and your family at this very sad time.  She is now your guardian angel looking over her family and friends.

I only met Vicki a few times, but she was obviously amazing, to have raised such a great son, who in turn married a great lady! We are praying for your family during this time of loss, while at the same time, we praise God that she is now praising Him in an unfathomable way.

Granny, how blessed am I to have a part of you running through my veins. How blessed am I to have been apart of your family? How blessed am I to have gone to my first professional basketball game with you? How blessed am I to have had you cheer my name at the many games of mine you came to? How honored am I to have seen God work through you and to have see how many lives you have touched? There are not words to explain how much you meant to me and how much you will be missed. I hope one day to be half the woman you were. I Love You, and cannot wait to see your beautiful face once again. I know you are above watching over me and that will get me through this!
Always and Forever will you rest in a special place in my heart.
-And forever will I be....
Your Rugby Angel.

Gregg and I were blessed to have visited with Vicki just last year at Chris and Natalie's wedding.  It had been many years.  We know she was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother
and woman.  We also know she will be so missed!  She's with our Lord strong, so our prayer is for your family to keep that faith strong!  WE are praying for you all.

Granny,
It is so hard to put in words all that you have meant to me. From the time you found me hiding in Missy's closet(not even going to mention leaving me in there for 45 minutes)to being there for me through every trail and accomplishment I have had through the years. You have been a great role model for all to look up to and one of my biggest fans. Thank you for all you have done in my life and the legacy that you have passed on that will live thru my family for generations to come. I love you very much and will miss you greatly every day until I get to see you again. The one thing I can count on that will help me get by until that day, is that I will see a part of you in these little faces of your grand kids and the "greats" that all have some part of you in each of them.

Until that Day
Daryl

Such fond memories of Vicki.  She will be missed by all who were touched by her grace and humor.  We remember her calling to offer the reassuring words of Psalms 46 during Hurricane Alicia.  Prayers to Tom, Andy, Missy and their families.

Granny, I love you! You were my strength these past few months. When I felt weak I could count on your phone call to tell me, "it is all gonna be okay, ashley." I wasn't ready yet granny.... But God was.....  You were incredible and your testimony will live on through all of us. I will not let you down. I will not say goodbye only see you soon!!!  
Love,
Your grandaughter

Granny, You have been my strength the past few months. You never let me stay weak for long but instead reminded me of how much you loved me. I wasn't ready for you to leave us.... I dont know how to get through this except to be reminded that this is not goodbye.... its just see you soon! I love you.... watch over me granny! I need you!

We have so many treasured memories of special people at Sugar Creek Baptist Church from years past  -- including Vicki, Tom, Andy and Missy.  Our prayers will be ongoing for your dear family during this time of loss.  We do rejoice that Vicki is in the very presence of our Lord Jesus!

Granny, how blessed am I to have a part on you running in my veins? How blessed am I to have gone to my first professional basketball game with you? How blessed am I to have had you cheering my name on the sidelines for the many sports I played? How honored am I to have witnessed the work God did in your life? These tears I cry are merely selfish, because our maker has you now. You no longer feel pain, not a single worry, and I bet you look beyond beautiful. I can not express the right words to tell you how much you meant to me. Forever you will rest in my heart, and I hope that one day I can be half the woman you were. I Love You Gran. for Forever and a Day.
-Always your Rugby Angel

My love and sympathy to the Brown Family! I am so sorry to hear of the loss of such a wonderful woman! Vicki always brought a smile to my face! She was one of my faithful volunteers at Bear Creek Baptist Church. We had so many different things in common and I treasured her so much! May the Lord comfort your hearts and bring you peace and strength in the many days ahead! May you cling to the wonderful memories of your sweet wife, Mom and Granny. May you all know that she loved each and very one of you with all her being! Love our talks about her family!  She always called me Toots! I will miss her saying that to me. God bless each one of you and know you are in my prayers!
We will miss you Vicki XOXO

I know she will be greatly missed by you all.  I'll be praying for you Tom, Missy and Andy.  Brings back great memories of Sugar Creek Baptist!

Vicki, you have touched our lives, and your legacy lives on, through your son Andy and his wonderful family...we're lifting them up in prayer as they miss you.

She was a great leader, prayer warrior, teacher, wife, mom and my friend. Vicki's own words Nov. 29th: "Pray an extra prayer for Tom, this is rough on him...."how I love this man"!!!" 
     I will miss her prayers for me, she prayed until the very end. She put other's first in spite of her own health! Vicki, I miss you!

Love, Jeanie Mason
