She was born on October 21, 1957, to the late Douglas and Millie Land Trew. Throughout life, Vickie worshiped the Lord while striving to spread the Gospel in a loving and caring way. A true friend to many, Vickie will be remembered for how she always treated each person with respect, dignity, and love to which led her to never meet a stranger. One of her fondest memories would be the blessing of being called, Nana, by her beloved and cherished grandchildren.

She was dearly loved by her family and friends and will be deeply missed by all who were blessed to have known her.
