At 8 p.m. on Sunday, September 24, one of god’s greatest creations, Vicki Lynn McNaughton, left us.
She left surrounded by family, after fighting her hardest for 5 years to stay longer. She leaves behind many to mourn, remember and honor her memory. Some of those are her brother, Bob (Pender Harbour), husband Gary (Kamloops), daughter Lisa (Will)(Calgary), son Paul (Bella Bella), daughter Shelly (Kamloops), and son Reece (Heather)(Kamloops). She will also be missed by her 13 grandchildren Billy, Hugh,(Calgary) Brandin, Sydney, Alexander, Cyarra, Styles (Kamloops) John, Tess, Jayden, Jasiah (Bella Bella) Keelan and Declan (Kamloops). She also leaves 1 great grandchild Aubree (Kamloops) who, because of COVID, did not have the benefit of really knowing Vicki. She also leaves many more relatives and friends too numerous to mention, but their friendship and love was still cherished by her.
Vicki was an avid horse person and, over many years, had a number of horses. Although her last horse, Wizard, stood out among the rest. Wizard and Vicki had a special bond built up over many years. Two days before Vicki’s passing, she had a great time with Wizard and even had one last ride. A very meaningful moment for them both.
Anyone who knew Vicki also knew Buddy and their special relationship. Over the past 5 years Buddy was Vicki’s constant companion and gave her an unwavering love only he could have given. To see Buddy suffer now, you realize how much he truly loved her.
Over the years Vicki has had many truly great friends, too many to mention them all, but they know who they are. A couple of note would be Chrystal (her horse partner) her walking group Diane, Jim, Cindy, Ed and her newest friend Dani. They gave her the love and support needed during these last few years.
Lastly, as her husband for the last 50 years, I am truly blessed to have known and loved this special person, and to have been loved by her in return. Vicki will be missed by everyone she touched.
Rest in peace my angel. You deserve it.
A celebration of life was had prior to her passing. Donations to Kamloops Hospice, in lieu of flowers, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
You may offer a message of condolence at Cypress Funeral & Cremation Services for the McNaughton family.
