Vicki and I were best friends since we were 7-8 years old. She even lived with my mother and I for a while when we were teenagers. I remember when Vicki met the cowboy of her dreams, Carl. And that was it!
I remember when Carla was born. I think they were living in Avondale. My Mom and I drove out to see her and the new baby. Vicki never took her eyes off Carla. But I did get to hold her.
As the years went by and our lives changed, we drifted apart, but we remained friends forever. I saw her and the family at her home one afternoon. I think they were living in Maryvale at that time. Vicki came to see me and she was having trouble getting around then. We talked on the phone often and at one point she said she just couldn’t get around at all.
Now, so many years have passed. I’ll always remember my dear friend and I know how much she loved her family. And I have told my children and grandchildren of all the good times I shared with my bestie – Vicki. I will miss you Vicki.
My deepest sympathy to her family., and with love,
Rosemary
