Ross, Vickie J. Phenomenal mother, daughter, sister and friend passed away on Friday, August 29. A journalist at heart, Vickie worked in newspapers, corporations and nonprofits to help people tell their stories. She was active in community theater and choirs; she had a song for every situation. Most recently, she was an enthusiastic volunteer and advocate for Gilda's Club. After living all over the country, Vickie was proud to call herself a Minnesotan. She is survived by a daughter, Kasey Ross, sister, Judy Lambert, and fantastic friends. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Vickie's name to GildasClubTwinCities.org. Memorial party will be held at a later date.
