May 24, 1948 – January 30, 2023

Mrs. Vicki Perog passed away peacefully at the Nicola Valley Hospital on January 30, 2023.

Vicki was born in Penticton, spent her childhood in Quesnel and moved to Prince George to start her family.

In the mid-70s, Vicki moved to Kelowna, where she had many friends. She enjoyed swimming, curling, golf and just sitting in the sunshine, enjoying a beverage with her friends. In 1989 she moved to Merritt to be closer to her family and there she met her husband Jerry Perog.

Vicki never met an animal she didn’t love and delight in spoiling rotten. Vicki loved to laugh and enjoyed nothing better than sharing amusing anecdotes from her past. Vicki had a huge heart and her kitchen table was always open to anyone who needed to talk about their day, vent about an injustice, shed a tear, celebrate a milestone or just laugh until your sides hurt.

Vicki finished her working career in Merritt and was loved and respected by her co-workers. She spent her final years doting on her dog Sassy and visiting with friends and family and sitting on her deck enjoying the beauty of the world around her.

Vicki was predeceased by her parents Frank and Velma Burns and her sisters Fran Hotlzand Lynne Clark.

She is survived by her husband Jerry Perog and her daughter Allison McIndoe (Dayna Acker) her brother and sister in law Jim and Jean Perog, brother and sister law Vaughn and Diane McIndoe, sister in law Doreen Chamberlin, step daughter Charene Perog, step grandson Brendon Chow and her nephews and nieces Tim (Kristina) Holtz, Heide (Ray Prince) Holtz, Kim (Lloyd) Agar, Donalda Holtz, Justin (Mika) Biller and Charmaine (Raymond) McCommick.

Vicki will be deeply missed by her special friends Cindy Letendre, Delilah (Steven) Dick, Cindy Kruse, Cheryl Seaman, Raquel Ballard, Lynne Ray, Bonnie Cowan and Sheri Smith. She will also be missed by the many people whose lives she touched over the years.

A celebration of Vicki’s life will be taking place at a later date

Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at Merritt Funeral Chapel.
