She is also survived by sister Gerri Cook along with numerous nieces and nephews.
Vicki was preceded in death by one brother-in-law Joseph Cook.
Family was very important to her. She doted on her husband and two boys, instilling in
them the values of Faith, Family, and Love. Vicki attended all her children’s and
grandchildren’s sporting events when they were little, never missing any and always
being supportive. She loved getting photos of all the grand babies and great grand
babies. She kept all the hand drawn photos that the kids made her and put them away
carefully or hung them on the refrigerator.
The farm in Pennsylvania was her pride and Joy. She loved the peacefulness of it and
how beautiful it was. She loved to sit on the front porch and look out over the farm and
pond. People would stop and ask permission to take pictures there for proms,
engagement, and senior photos.
Vicki had a great love for animals. She loved to feed the deer and watch them come in
to eat while she was doing her dishes. Her two great loves were her yellow labs. Buck
and Doolittle, they were more than dogs to her, they were her babies and were treated
as such. Vicki donated to The Humane Society and many other charities where she
could help animals in need. In her free time, she loved to work in her gardens. She
took such pride in making them look beautiful. The front of the house and the porch
were always perfect every spring with colorful flowers.
Vicki loved to bake and had so many cookbooks. She was a wonderful cook. She
loved to go to the store and wander through the isles as Mickey slept in the van waiting
patiently for her. She was always ready to cook up whatever Mickey would bring in –
fish, squirrel, rabbits, deer etc.
One of her favorite hobbies was shopping., looking through stacks of magazines and
filling out the order forms! Even though she may have gotten carried away sometimes.
She received packages almost daily. Amazon would have loved her had she known
how to use the computer!
Vicki took great pride in her appearance, rolling her hair in her curlers, putting on her
lotions, and makeup. Always wanting her hair to stay red, never gray.! She had a great
love for Estee Lauder.
Her strong faith and values will be passed down from generation to generation, and she
will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
