    I am so sorry for your loss. I worked for almost 11 years with Vicki at Fairfield. She was a great co-worker and friend. She will be sorely missed.

    Vicki was an extraordinary human being who my husband, Naren, and I were fortunate to get to know over the last eight years. She was incredibly generous and thoughtful, hard-working and meticulous, broad-minded, smart, and had a wicked sense of humor. She treated our home and us like her own, and, over the years, she became a part of our family. It’s hard for us to accept that she’s gone; we would do anything to see her smiling face and be at the receiving end of her jokes again. We miss you terribly, Vicki, and will always miss you. You have taken a piece of us with you.

    Our thoughts are also with Allison and her children, who have gone through a lot in these last four months. Dylan has been the sweetest grandkid to Vicki and Allison a most devoted daughter. Vicki would be very proud and grateful for both of you. We know you did everything you could. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
