I loved Vickie dearly. She was a loving sweet girl. We went to Boones Creek high school together and she had a lot of friends. She was very popular and I felt blessed she chose me as a friend. Prayers to the family.

Hi Wayne & family, I am so sorry for your loss. Vicky was so sweet and kind. Mom thought a lot of Vicky and mentioned the two of you often. She tried to keep up with all the kids and what they were doing....Aunt Liz would keep her updated. I have so many memories of time at your house. Loved your mom & dad. I am praying for you & the family. Love, Joyce Baldwin Smith
