Thereafter, she took care of several of her younger siblings. Vicki worked at Nativity of Our Lord as a school aide to elementary children.

Her specialty was sewing colorful blankets for all the new babies in the family, including friends of her grandchildren, per their request!

She was blessed to know the greatest and loving priests throughout her service in her ministry and church. Her faith sustained her to the very end and was very grateful for her lifelong blessings. Vicki is survived by her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, her sister Linda and numerous family and friends. Vicki was preceded in death by her husband, Julian, her son-in-law Dale, and great-grandchild, John Paul, III. In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to The Denver Hospice, 8289 E.
