Victoria had many roles in life, but at the top of her list was being an amazing mother and grandmother.

She had an impeccable sense of humor that kept everyone laughing and lifted us up when we needed it the most. Victoria had a big heart and cared for those around her and especially for her animals. She is met in heaven by three of her favorite companions- Chance, Selene and Patches. She often enjoyed going thrift shopping or garage sailing, exercising her very green thumb in the gardens and riding and tending to the horses she once had.

“I’m already there.

Take a look around

I’m the sunshine in your hair

I’m the shadow on the ground

I’m the whispers in the wind

I’m your imaginary friend.

And I know, I’m in your prayers.

Oh, I’m already there.”

“I’m already there

Don’t make a sound

I’m the beat in your heart

I’m the moonlight shining down

I’m the whisper in the wind

And I’ll be there till the end

Can you feel the love that we share?

Oh, I’m already there.”
