This news grieves me, but Trefor has asked me to let you all know that Vicki passed away this evening. She'd been taken into hospital on Monday and it had become obvious that Vicki would not be able to fight this any more.

I know that Vicki treasured all her Folk Family and appreciated the good thoughts sent to her via the Mudcat. I'm certain that she would have wanted to say goodbye herself, but you all know that.

Trefor has expressed a wish that the news of Vicki's passing be spread far and wide so that all their friends are informed as quickly as possible. I know that you will all help with this wish.

Sometime soon there will be a musical Celebration of Vicki's Life, that was her wish. And we will make sure that happens, remembering Vicki is a pleasure.

Goodbye sweet Vicki, sending love and hugs to Trefor and all their family at this time.
