She was a permanent fixture of Sussex and had a hug and kiss for everyone travelling through. Vicky had trusted Jesus Christ as her Saviour. She loved to knit and her hands were hardly still. She also shared her love with food, such as lasagna and fresh cut fries for her son.

Vicky always said, “Do what’s right and do what’s good. Be kind and help others.
