Dear Betty,Brenda,Sarah,Paul,Christina,Rebecca
and John,
It is hard to put in words how I felt about your Mom a single
- minded Follower of Jesus Christ. She was rock - solid, wise
and sincere and laid her life down for all of you. I respected
and loved her as a truly wonderful friend. I will miss her
greatly for she was truly amazing. My prayers of love, comfort
will follow for all of you. I must rejoice that is no longer
suffering or in pain.
Lovely,
Marilyn R. Holms

Dear Colantonio Family,
Your mom and sister was such an incredible woman! I truly
enjoyed being around her and looked forward to times of
listening to her wisdom…even on the simplest of situations. What
has consistently stood out to me over the years about her…has
been her deep passion and love for her kids and family. It was
SO strong!!
This past year, though it was extremely tough for her, I have
watched her life in such amazement and have genuinely admired
how she chose to live. She was full of such joy! Her love for
Jesus was so inspiring, contagious and life changing. She has
left a beautiful legacy. It will live on for years and years. I
will really miss her. I extend my deepest sympathy to each of
you.
Love, Heather Brubaker
To all of you in Vicky's family I send my love
and condolences. Knowing Betty all these years I have heard many
stories and met her a few times when she visited our church. It
was a privilege to have been able to pray for her and I will
continue to hold you all up through your loss. What an amazing
woman.
Christina, Adam and family,
Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for the passing of
your mother, Vicky. We pray that God may comfort you and keep
you in his arms, through this difficult time. We will keep you,
your family and your mother Vicky in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Betty and all family members,
I am so privileged to have been part of the Moorhead family for
many years and I am so glad I had a chance to be with Vicky and
Betty in Deadwood and seeing how close they were as sisters.
I noticed what a caring and warm person Vicky was and what a
loss it is to us but what great gain for Vicky and that is the
comfort to hold on to.
You all have my prayers that the God of all comfort will be your
comfort in this difficult time.

To the family of Vicky Colantonio,
My son went to The Jenkins School for preschool and
kindergarten. Vicky was always a steadfast face as we walked
through the door in the morning. She always had a smile for us
and something kind to say. She will be missed by my family and
The Jenkins School as one who provided a kind heart and many
other numerous things that the school needed. She also will be
missed by the kids who she saw as they walked by her coming and
going from school. What a wonderful human being she was! My
sympathies to all of you.
Blessings,
Nancy Marker, Jenkins School Board
Dear Paul and Family,
You are in my prayers. God's special peace be with you during
this sad time. We are here ... whenever.
Love,
Doris Moore
We have such memories of Vicky And her family
when they lived on Peak St. in Lead. You have our deepest
sympathy. God bless. Love,
Dwain & Irene Ashem
To her family and friends I never got to meet
Vicky, but in reading about her, I think she would have been a
friend. You can be so proud of her and the things she did.
She is now with the Lord, and looking down upon all of
you, shed no tears, for you will see her again, and be together
for ever and ever. God Bless all of you at this time, I go to
Jesus Christ Salt and Light in Sea tac Washington state. I
got to meet Vicky's sister Betty, and she is a wonderful
God loving person too,

Dear Betty and all of Vicky's family...was so
happy you called today Betty, even if the news was a shock.
Hard to imagine that little Vicky is gone. We have not kept in
contact much but I never think of Peak St. without the Moorheads
coming to mind...what a great time in our lives. Have to smile
just thinking about her; she was always so sweet, quiet and
tiny. Happy that David and I got to have breakfast with the two
of you in Deadwood a few years ago...it had been a long time
since we'd seen Vicky.
David and I will be keeping all of you in our prayers.
Love and big hugs to little Vicky Belle's family.
Dear Betty and Colantonio family,
Having grown up with you and Vicky and being next door neighbors
in Lead, you were all great neighbors to us Brudvigs. I
remember Vicky used to like to sunbathe on the side of your yard
in a lounge chair. I was really sorry to hear of Vicky's
passing! She was a sweet and cute girl. I wish I could have
seen her again before all this happened. I know she is in God's
hands now. You have my heartfelt sympathy!
Love, Janice (Brudvig) Hardy
Both of us are deeply saddened to hear of
Vicky's passing. I grew up right next door to her parents house
in Lead, South Dakota on Peak St. I remember Vicky as a pretty
little blond haired girl and her older sister Betty real well.
Its a shame that life and time sends us in all directions, but I
guess that is the way its to be. Vicky was a very nice girl, and
I remember her well. Our sad wishes go out to her family and
friends.

To Vicky's family, I am also a long time Lead
neighbor and friend. It was so much fun to meet Betty and Vicky
for a quick lunch a few years ago here in York and remember the
fun times that had passed. I am deeply saddened to think of the
Peak Street kids we are losing. If I remember correctly, I think
Vicky was the baby of the neighborhood. I know she put up a good
fight and that her strength must have been amazing and that now
she will be with us all until we meet again in Heaven. All of
our Love and prayers to our newest Angel and to her family.

Dear Family of Vicki,
My children attended Jenkins several years ago, and I spent
quite a bit of time at one point in the office with Vicki doing
"Jenkins Parent" duties. Vicki was so amazingly patient with
all of the "hecticness" of the office and all of the parents and
children coming in to ask her questions constantly. Never did I
hear her be anything but kind and sweet. As I am sure she told
all of the kids, she would always tell my children they were her
favorite and always had a piece of candy for them from her desk.
We stopped in the office several times over the years, and she
always made me and my children feel like we were so missed. I
wish I would have stopped in sometime over the past two years.
I remember when Victoria was born, she could not contain the
light beaming from her face. I will remember Vicki and I am
thinking of you.
Our daughters, Terri Lynn and Donna Rae Treber,
remember playing in the Peak St. mud puddles with you Brenda.
That's just one of many wonderful memories we have of Vicky and
her family. Have to share this also: The Moorheads and the
Korpis spent so much time together, even Christmas. It was
Christmas Eve and we were all going to have dinner at our
house...Santa was going to come early too! Our parents got
really tired of us asking when Santa was going to come, so my
dad and your Grandpa Bert told us all to run around the block
twice and by the time we got back, Santa would have made his
rounds. We were all amazed that it actually happened. But it
did! (Vicky didn't have to run because it was too cold and she
was too little.) I got a toy cash register that year and Vicky
and I played with that all evening until our folks got tired of
it dinging ever time the drawer opened.
I could go on and on, but know that the Moorheads were a very
BIG part of our lives for many years. More hugs to all of you
and hope you're all doing ok. David and June Treber

Dear Betty and family of Vicky,
We send our condolences and love your way!! It has been a long
journey for all of you but we hope you are resting in the peace
that only Christ can give at this time.
Sincerely,
