Re: Vickie H is an angel now
I knew we would be losing our dearest Vickie since she stayed in touch with me when she was up to it. Even though I knew this was coming...and expected this any day it just pains me beyond belief. I am a mess today, I can't get the tears to stop...what a truly painful loss this is for me and all of us. Vickie always reached out to anyone that needed help. She was such a geninue, compassionate, loving, caring person. If she thought she could help in any way she was there for you. Vickie was always so positive and uplifting...always offering hope to all. She was truly a beautiful person inside and out. I just can't express how much I will miss her. I will carry Vickie in my heart forever. I feel so blessed to have known her...but so sad she was taken from us so soon.
To Cap & her family my heart felt condolences to all of you. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers in the difficult days ahead.
My Sincere Sympathy,
Chelee
