Age 64, of Jackson, passed away peacefully on Friday, February 11, 2022 with her husband at her side while under the wonderful care of the staff at the Henry Ford Allegiance Hospice Home.

Vicki was the queen of sending out cards to family and friends, never forgetting anyone's birthday, anniversary or graduation and certainly sending to so many at Christmas. She loved to sew bears, angels, pillows and body pillows to share with others. Vicki would often times cook up meals and take them to the fire department in appreciation of their service. She faithfully contributed to so many organizations like St. Jude, the Cancer Society, St. Joseph Catholic Church (now St. Joseph Oratory) and many others. She loved going to her church and truly missed it when Covid issues didn't allow her to attend as usual.
Cremation has taken place and a Memorial Mass to honor Vicki's life will be held at St. Joseph Oratory, 705 N. Waterloo Street, Jackson, MI 49202 on Saturday, February 26, 2022 at Noon with Father Chas Canoy as celebrant (Note change in service date). Visitation will be held at the church beginning at 11:00 am. For those who wish, contributions in Vicki's memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or St. Joseph Oratory would be appreciated.
