I was saddened to learn of Vicki's death while reading the Obituaries section of the latest Washington University alumni magazine. Although I did not know her well, Vicki and I were floormates during our freshman year at WU, and we shared quite a few laughs during our time there. Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

It was a pleasure to know Vicki and her absence is keenly felt. Although I was Vicki's boss for a short period of time, she taught me as much, if not more, than I taught her. Vicki's life force was strong and she drew many people into her circle; I count myself lucky that I had the pleasure to be among that group. We will miss her very much.

I will alway remember Vicky as a kind and caring person. She was so sensitive and so willing to be a good friend. I ran into her about 10 years ago in St. Louis and it was a pleasure to see her. We laughed a lot.

My prayers and sympathies are with all of you.

A wonderful friend and a very caring person. I'll miss her a lot. If she could do karate she would have have been a 10th Dan Blackbelter.

To the Potters:



Vicki was a teacher and a friend to me. We had great serious moments at work, and wonderful silly ones on the outside. Not only was she a friend, but she also brought her friends together, allowing many great new friendships to form. My wife, son, and I will miss her very much, but we can never know your loss. My sympathies to you.

Mrs. Potter - It was an honor and a lot of fun being Vicki's friend. My heart and prayers go out to you, Jody and Tracey. I will miss Vicki.

Vicki was an amazing woman, a freakishly smart tech and a good friend. She drew people together and I'm blessed to have spent time with her. Dedicated, insightful and funny as all get out - I'll miss her.

During the two years our highschool experiences overlapped, Vicki and I played eight seasons of sports teams together. Her drive and committment influenced me as a younger player.
