My thoughts and feelings today are very much with Vicki's daughter Faye. I shared lots of fun and laughter with Faye and friends when we were little at Vicki's house.

My thoughts are very much with you Faye, far too young to lose such a lovely Mumxxx

Such sad news! Our condolences to you Trefor. Was with Vicki at Bedworth and really admired her strength and determination. We hoped she would beat it but sadly it was not to be. A lovely lady who will be greatly missed. Sorry neither Bill or I can make the funeral due to work commitments but we will be thinking of you Trefor and the family and friends.

Damn, Found out details just too late to attend the funeral, today, Wed. So sad to lose Vikki. My own thoughts are with Trefor and Faye, as no doubt are those of all of us from Rhyl Folk Club.
God Bless, Alun

Vicki was always so friendly, a happy positive person and strong and brave in her illness. Talking to Vicki always made me feel so good. Treasured memories.

Warm condolences to Trefor and all who loved her.

she was very positive at Banbury last year, though the treatment was causing problems.

her determination is her tribute.

So sad to hear this dreadful news. She will be sadly missed by a great many, not just on the folk scene.

Sincerest condolences to Trefor and family.

I asked Trefor's friend Stuart what Trefor wants people to wear to Vicki's funeral. Trefor is wearing mourning but I think the message is wear what you want. Stuart has suggested people might like to wear something blue as this was Vicki's favourite colour.

We have been singing songs for her, listening to Vicki and looking at Richard Atkins' videos of her this weekend and she has been very much with us. Also we are all thinking of Trefor and Faye and the rest of the family and have been sharing many happy memories of Vicki.

I only had confirmation of Vicki's passing today. I didn't know Vicki well, but she seeemd a lovely lady. I can't really add to what everyone else has said. I'll be thinking of Trefor on Wednesday.

I've quickly edited some of the raw material I filmed at the Miskin at Easter festival 2006, and loaded it to Youtube as a tribute to Vicki. I didn't want to delay by adding titles or doing anything clever with the sound levels etc.

I just spent Easter Weekend at Old Keepers. I did not know Vicki or Trefor, but I could tell that Vicki was well-loved. Vicki's music played through the stereo in the lounge and on the "survivor's night", Richard conjured up some video from Miskin and a few videos of past Easters at Old Keepers. Vicki was in much of the footage and her singing and humour came through quite well.

I wish I could have known her.

I know that many are gathered as I write this to celebrate Vicki's life and to recount many memories, stories and most of all her music.

Tonight at Cottingham Live! I will sing for Vicki.

In peace,
Debra Cowan

we have just returned from a very moving day, celebrating Vicki's life.
It was also a celebration of Trefor's future. He showed such strength throughout the day and sang and played beautifully in the evening.There is no doubt that Trefor will come through this and continue to grow on the Folk scene.

Love you mate.

Oh Vicki, We came to celebrate Your life but it was us who came away uplifted, especially seeing Trefor with a guitar and singing, an inspiration to us all.

We all look forward to seeing Trefor performing in the future and knowing that Vicki will be with him and encouraging him.

All love to Tref and Faye

The sun was shining with a spring warmth as we spent an afternoon on a Welsh hillside with friends old and some new and singing for lovely Vicki. Hearing Trefor sing really was quite a moment. Mix of happy and sad all in one. Some other lovely singing tributes to Vicki, it was lovely to be with you all.
Thank you,
