To know Vicky was to know the unconditional love she had for everyone in her life. If you were a part of her life you always knew how special you were. She was beautiful inside and out and lit up a room with her grace and smile. Her children and grandchildren were her world and each one of them held a very special place in her heart. Vicky had a lifetime bond with some very special ladies, her Royal Teen sisters. During the time of her short illness, Vicky experienced much joy, peace and love. She had many visitors from near and far. Family and friends that she loved and was loved by so deeply. Vicky’s long time passion was painting. She created masterpieces for so many that she loved. She was a member of the Shelby County Art Association. And now these three things remain: Faith, Hope and Love. But the greatest of these is Love.
