"My thoughts today, Monday, May 10, 2014; though her walk on earth may be short, her words have reached hundreds. Her ministry has changes lives and she has been a stepping stone for many to follow, a perfect example of a woman of Faith. She has shown us that miracles do happen, if only for a week or a month. Vickey's ministry will forever be remembered. She is anointed by God and always His faithful servant, she listened for His voice and allowed herself to be his vessel. In dying she has continued to teach others how to live. Vickey may be small in stature but carried a big message: LIVE FOR JESUS!"
