Vic was more then just a friend, she was a sister in Christ. I will miss her and I talking in our office at Master's Hands, we laughed together, cried together and always ended our talks with a power hug. She was such an inspiration in my life and her love for Jesus shined as soon as she entered a room. Praying for Ed and all the family Vic s life will continue on in the hearts of all those she touched and came across. Love you Vic , love you Ed.
