Holly & Austin we are so very sorry to hear about you Mom & Dad. Our thoughts and prayers have been with you since we heard the terrible news of their accident. Your Mom has been there for me during many trials and I for her. I wish somehow I could be there for both of you but know that you will be OK because I know Vicki's faith has been instilled in both of you also. Vicki & I had many conversations ending with tears and hugs and that shoulder of support for each other. She always had the right words to say and insight but we had many joyful and happy times too. Many days of tea at her table we did spend. We shared kitchen table wisdom with each other for many many years. She & your Dad will be missed by so many people. Vicki has left a special mark in my heart for sure. I do hope that your find comfort in knowing that they are smiling now and at peace in their new home in heaven. I hope that knowledge will give you both peace to comfort your sad hearts. We will continue to pray for both of you and your family. Love, Carol & Ed Stoltenberg
Our deepest sympathies are with the family and friends of Vicky and Austin.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I came to know Vicky over the last year at the nursing home where her mom was. She was a wonderful presence there. She took such loving care of her mom. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Austin and family, I was so sad to hear of the passing of your parents. When I read about it I could close my eyes and picture your mom coming to school as the room mother when we were growing up and when I saw her picture she hadn't changed much at all. You had wonderful parents and wonderful memories, you have my deepest sympathy.
I want to tell you how sad I am for all of you loosing both parents to such a terrible accident. Please know that her many friends and classmates will miss her and that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Vici
Our deepest sympathy and prayers are with you during this time. May God bless you and your family.
While we didn't know Vicky that well, meeting her this 4th of July was a pleasure. She will be missed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Please call if there is anything we can assist you with.
Crystal, Mark, and the girls.
