  6. Condolences to all of Vicki’s loved ones. We met many years ago whilst working at Coles and Vicki was always a friendly face on the registers after I left. I ran into her a few times over the last 12 months and although she was having a tough run she always had a smile on her face and time for a chat- especially about her grandchildren. Rest Easy
