Miss Martin,
You were one of my favorite teachers. Full of love & made learning fun. I could count on you to always point me in the right direction. Thanks for your many "grace" moments in class & for putting up with the tough student I was. I will always have a special place in my heart for you for so many reasons. Hugs

Vicki, you were a great teacher and Christian role model for our daughters. Your diligence  in the class room always paid off.  We know that you are singing God's praises with the Heavenly choir and smiling your beautiful smile. You, my dear, will be missed so much. You were too young to leave us!

I kept it together to get everything done, just like I was taught.  But now that thing are said and done I am feeling this huge empty space.  She was not only my aunt, but my friend.  For the last three years she helped raise my two beautiful children.  She helped fill the void of loosing my mom.  There is no more family for us, she was the last one.  I love you Aunt Vicki!  Goodbye for now....

Love Pam's entry... thinking of your joy and "low maintenance" makes me want to sing too, Vicki.  Hope you will be watching for us, at the Gate!  Forgot to sign earlier, on Aug. 21.    - Carol J.

The other night, I was driving home, thinking about Vicki.
I suddenly started singing:
She's got a mansion, just over the hilltop.
In that bright land where she will never grow old.
And someday yonder, we will never more wander,
But walk with her on streets of gold.

I will remember Vicki for her encouraging people to trust in God.

VICKI MS MARTIN MY SONS 5TH GRADE TEACHER AT PALOVERDE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL. SHE WAS AN AMAZING LADY AND TEACHER AND SHE WILL BE MISSED BUT.... ABSENT FROM OUR BODY MEANS WE ARE PRESENT WITH OUR LORD !!!!!! HALLELUJAH

I remember as a kid it was always a treat when Cousin Garnet came to visit.  She was probably 50 then, but I remember wanting to be like her when I got old.  Then, when Evelyn and Art used to visit in their big RV, I wanted to be on the road.  And I always admired Vicki's willingness to travel to exotic places.  Good relatives, good friends, sadly missed.

Indeed, well done!  Now with the Lord you will be missed. You loved to travel and now you're home. We worked together for many years at PVCS and I always enjoyed your company. The joy in all this is we will see each other some day and for always with the Lord.

Vicki was such a dear friend... we taught together over 22 years.  Palo Verde Christian was her life... don't know that she ever worked anywhere else...  She was a great teacher to my son, and she never missed my birthday.  I LOVED working after-school extended care with her.  She exemplified the finest Christian teacher... should be memorialized for all teachers to recall!  We appreciated her arranging our reunions, and we will all miss her SO MUCH!!  Losing her makes my heart ache!   "Well done, good and faithful servant."  We love you.
