And then later our paths crossed again while working for Wells Fargo in Charlotte. We would laugh and talk about the love we had for our kids.

I only had known Victoria for a short time but in that short time she made me feel like we had been friends forever. Our hearts understood the loss of a parent and we were able to relate in a lot of ways. She was always so pleasant to be around. Her presence will be missed here at Summit Credit Union. Rest easy my sweet friend.

There simply are no words to express my feelings. I never had the privilege of working with you in person but as one of your co-workers at the Credit Union I had the please of receiving emails from you, every one of which was well written and professional. I still have the ones you sent to me telling me you appreciated me and the job I do- I will treasure your praise forever. I wish I had had more time to tell you what an excellent job you were doing and how much I thought of you. I hope you know. Prayers and peace for your family and hopefully they know what a special person you were and what a special place and role in heaven God has for you! God bless your family and friends and grant them peace during this time. Kay
Me and Victoria worked together at the credit union. She was such a sweet and bubbly person and I looked forward to sharing laughs and our daily talks. She will truly be missed. My sincere condolences to her family and friends. *Tina J*
