Miss Vicki, it's been almost a year & it still doesn't seem real. I hope that time has been kind to your family.

Vicki, I am at a lost for words. I just found out last night what happened and I couldn't believe my ears. We had so much fun at FHC, you trained me and you part of the reason why I'm the MA I am today. You were a hard worker and an even better friend. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this, but I know god had a plan for you. Rest in peace beautiful angel. You will truly be missed.

Vicki, my God I am in so much pain over you! I am sorry this is so late I have not had a computer. You made Karen and I laugh so much when we were in high school. I can't believe you're gone. I will treasure you!

I know this is late, but vicki was a great person wtih a big heart. she was great to work with & a great person to talk to. her family and friends were thought about this holiday season. i am glad she is not suffering any more, and from here on out we only take the memories with us. rest easy girl and watch over this crazy world.

Today is Christmas morning.  You have shared 31 Christmas's with me, Larisa and Scott.  It will not be the same.  We will cry and I hope we will laugh - at some of those goofy Christmas moments we spent together.  We know you are here in spirit and you are surely here in the form of Robby.  I will take good care of him and your sister, Karen and your Dad.  Today will be tough.  We need help from every angel you can send.  I love and miss you.  
Big Karen

To my Sister, best friend, and other half. What am I gonna do without you? There is a huge hole in my life where you used to be. there is not a memory in my life that doesn't have you in it. I am gonna look to you in heaven for the strength to go on. Karen Van Vactor

Vicki you truly were a great mom. You will be missed, and forever in my heart. Thank you for raising my nephew and letting him be a part of our lives.

I am going to miss you so much, i promise you i will think about you everyday and do everything i can to make you even prouder of me. I cant believe your gone its almost unbelievable. At first i was really mad at God for taking my mother away from me, but then i realized that i got to have the best mother i could ever ask of for 18 years. I know your watching over my every move and protecting me from above. I love you momma !

I am so sorry to hear about her passing. She was a great person to know and I'm glade to have meet her. My condolences to her family and friends. She will be missed.

Vicki remains one of the nicest girls I know, anyone who could put up with us Res boys for that long is a true angel. She will be missed.

U were my lefty, with rights to! I remember that saying on a bumper sticker n Ur room. Grl u were my very best friend that God could've givin me thru our mercy days...best friends that were pregnant 2gether, put on bed rest 2gether. 18 yrs ago seems like yesterday that Robby n. Austin were our lil men. We were inseparable back then,worked together for years after that. U were the sister I never had. I kno we eventually went our separate ways, i thought of u often. My friend, until we meet again,I thank u for being our Guardian angel..we live,we learn,we forgive,we grow...I miss u grl.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. Our deepest condolences are with you as you grieve. I love you robby im always here and my door is always open if you need us baby,, love dora jones

God truly has one more angel in Heaven now. I pray that all of her family and friends find peace and mercy during this horrible time of sadness.

To my beautiful, sweet and caring Daughter. I love you with all my heart and will struggle to go on without you. You have taught me the meaning of Unconditional Love. Please watch over us from above. I hope you really new how much I loved you.

Bobby Karen and the entire family, I am so sorry for your loss.  I will keep all of you in my prayers.  If there is anything I can do to help please don't hesitate to call...even if it is just a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen.

Dear Vicki, Loving thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends at this time of sadness and grief. I'm happy to have known you from our workplace at FHC. You were always very pleasant , sweet, and a good worker. You will be greatly missed by all of us that had the pleasure to know you!

Our hearts go out to all the family.  May God give you the strength to carry on.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.  God bless.

So sorry to hear about Vicki.  I worked with her in Referrals at Portland Family Health Center.  In talking to her, I know she loved her family and will be sorely missed by them as well as those of us she worked with.

Karen and Bobby My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family always.

I will miss you so much you were a delight to work with, kind compassionate  and  caring. I know  that  you  loved  your son so much. And I know that someday we will meet again.

Hey Vicki you left too soon, and I never got a chance to talk with you about Kentucky basket ball this season. Man, are they struggling! I really felt hurt when I learnt of your passing. I was devastated. But I know, God is in control. You were always great to work with and my wife remembers how much you asked about my family especially our little Nicole. Take care, life is a little emptier without you. I may feel sad, but I know you' re where God wants you to be. May your loved ones take heart and wish you the best. Stay strong Vicki and as always: Go Blue!

I miss seeing your smiling face in the halls of FHC. We've lost a member of our family. I am sad that the world has lost such a wonderful woman and extraordinary mom.

Karen & Bobby I am so sorry for your loss. I wll be praying for your family.  I wish I could think of something to write that would ease your pain.  I hope you receive comfort in knowing that one day we'll all be reunited with our loved ones that have gone before us.  You have my sympathy.  God bless you and your family.                                                    Jack & Joan Miller

I am so sorry for your loss. I graduated with Vicki from Resurrection Catholic School in 1986. She was a very sweet and funny girl. May God bless your family in this time of need.

I miss you girl everyday. Still trying to make sense of it all. But, I guess GOD was needed another angel and was ready to call you home. Work will not be the same without you! We all miss you here at FHC-Portland. Keep watching over us and you family daily; I will never forget you. I am Praying for the family and other friends daily. You were one of a kind and a truly good person and friend. I'll see you again someday. ;( Gone but not forgotten.
