Vicki Lynn (Knox) Curley, 68, formerly of Rochester, passed from this world into the loving arms of her Lord and Savior on July 24, 2016 peacefully at her home in Beaver while holding the hands of her loving daughter and son-in-law, after a recent diagnosis of metastasized lung cancer.
Born August 26, 1947, she was the tenth child of the late George W. and Flora B. (Wolfram) Knox. Vicki will be remembered by her family and friends for her sweet and loving nature, her strong will and determination to be independent, her sense of humor, love of animals, and love for dancing and joking with her family and friends. She overcame many obstacles in her life and managed to rise above them and in spite of them continue to be a person with compassion and love for all. She has touched the hearts of all who knew her and showed what a difference it makes to just be kind to others.
She leaves behind to cherish her memory her only child, Victoria Marie Hogue and her husband, Mark of New Brighton; her two beloved grandchildren, who she loved with all her heart, Moriah Dockter (and boyfriend Joseph Maldonado) and Hayden Hogue; her two sisters, Joyce "Cookie" (Bill) Gewin of Rochester and Sandra "Posie” Knox of Las Vegas, NV; a special sister-in-law, Charmaine Knox and her many nieces and nephews she loved dearly.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Charles McCoy, her sisters, Phyllis “Jane” Bagshaw , Elaine "Ellen" Coombs, Patricia “Ann” Baughman ; her brothers, John, Russell, Arthur, and Robert Knox; her niece, Sharon Knox and her nephews, Sheldon Cooper and Dennis Baughman and her good friend and companion, John Gault.
As per her wishes, there will be no visitation or services. She was privately interred at Sylvania Hills Memorial Park with her Pastor and friend, Lon Hogue officiating.
The family wishes to thank the staff and all of the participants at Life Beaver and also the staff and residents of Friendship Commons for their compassionate care and friendship, her church family at The First Church of God New Brighton, and Doris Hogue and Kaye Ionta for their help and friendship.
