My condolences to the family. Vicky and Bud were such a sweet couple. I would see them through the years out shopping or at a restaurant. Vicky would always remember me and ask about the girls. Vicky had a heart of gold and would do anything for a person. She will truly be missed by her family and friends.

This is a great loss for so many people. Vicky was truly loved by everyone. Dan and John, you both did a wonderful job taking care of her and meeting all her needs. I went to visit her with Sarah a few times and it was always a nice visit. She would ask the kids if they wanted to sit on her lap and go for a ride with her on the wheel chair. Anthony loved it. She and Anthony would laugh together. We have so many wonderful memories of her and your dad.
Lad and I want you all to know that we are thinking of you.

To know her was to love her. I think what I loved most about her was she always said what she thought. You never had to guess. She told me on many occasions...Eddie,you guys are crazy, and she was right. Love you Vick. Rest in peace.

To the family of Vickie Jordan, my deepest sympathy to all. Vickie was a dear person to all who knew her...She said she adopted me after my mom passed back in 1986. I met her at Americana Beauty School where she came with her sister, Mary. I continued doing her hair for more than 25 years and so enjoyed the stories she told. We laughed and cried together so many times. Love to her sons and Bud in this time of sorrow and God bless. She will be missed by friends and family.
