She shared stories of waitressing in her mom’s café, stocking and cashiering at Mitchell’s, providing secretarial services for several oilfield businesses including the family business, Moore Transports for many years with her dad and brothers. She enjoyed pursuing her CDL and driving cross country before finally settling into her lifelong calling, caregiving.

Vicki was a dedicated caretaker in her profession, earning the admiration and gratitude of all those she cared for. Vicki's warmth and kindness touched the lives of many, leaving a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Outside of her professional life, Vicki found joy and relaxation in her hobbies. She loved bowling, participating in bowling leagues and travel leagues. She also enjoyed the thrill of bingo and even traveled to do so. In later years, she enjoyed being a part of the San Angelo Senior Citizen’s Center community where she loved a good game of SkipBo, Farkle, or dominoes. These activities and time with treasured friends and family brought her immense happiness and allowed her to connect in a meaningful way.
