Condolences to the Family

I only knew Victoria through Twitter, but it was a good 10 years’ worth. She was a real gem; funny, caring, and all-around wonderful. So sad to see this news. I thought she’d simply dropped off Twitter for a while during treatment. We messaged only a couple of days before she passed away and she did not let on at all how ill she was. Please accept my late but sincere condolences.

I was Victoria’s nurse a few times at Ann B Barshinger. We bonded right from the bat because she was always watching the TV show friends!! She was such a beautiful soul and I will miss her.

Words are poor when we suffer the loss of a loved one.  Still I want to convey my desire, however inadequate, to offer consolation. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

although I didnt know vicky as an adult, I do remember when she was born and a little girl.  I cant imagine how it feels to lose a child.  My heart hurts for all of you and thinking of you at this sad time.  Janet and Don Beaner
