We will miss her sense of humor, and funny personality....Our Grandma Josie and her would laugh at parties and we would love to see their bond as sisters and how family closeness should always be....We will remember her always....Yolanda's daughters Nancy & Crissy Couty

My heartfelt sympathy to Butch, Michael & Josie on the loss of your Mom, my Aunt Vickie. She is in God's hands now and rejoined with all her loved ones in heaven.
I will miss her but will remember the times at family parties where she used to tease my Mom and they joked with each other like sisters do together. Those memories will always remain in my heart.
