Vicki Lynn Waters, 59, peacefully passed on Sunday, 7 May 2017 in Farmington, Davis County, Utah. She was surrounded by her loving husband and family, having reached the end of her courageous two-year battle with cancer.
Vicki was the third and youngest child born to George L. and Betty Jean (Tallant) Walden of Lebanon, Boone County, Indiana. She arrived on 3 February 1958. While working a summer job in Arizona, at Jacob’s Lake, in 1978, Vicki met the love of her life, Royd Waters. The couple was reunited more than a decade later and, on 19 June 1992, married in the Salt Lake LDS Temple for time and all eternity. Along with a new husband, Vicki got four rather rambunctious kids, whom she raised and loved as her own.
Vicki began her career in the banking industry nearly forty years ago, the last ten being spent at Prime Alliance Bank in Bountiful. Vicki had a passion for the color purple and for teddy bears, and collected anything related to either. She also loved to travel--especially with her sister, and spent time in New York, Peru, Alaska, Europe, and the Caribbean. She loved camping, and while our summer family camping trips across the western U.S. were amazing, some were also ultimately disastrous—-but all the more memorable because of this.
Vicki was a faithful member of the LDS Church and served in many callings. She and Royd were involved heavily in Emergency Preparedness efforts for both their Ward and the City.
Vicki loved her family dearly, and was always a source of laughter, advice and support. She was overjoyed to become a Grandma earlier this year, and to learn of another grandchild due this summer.
Vicki is survived by her husband, Royd; her children, Angela (Brian) Vazquez, Gayle (Candace) Waters, Sara (Shane) Howard, and Emily (Joe) Hatch; along with her sister, Debby Walden; her brother, Kim Walden; seventeen nieces and nephews, and fourteen great-nieces and great-nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents.
Vicki and her family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at Huntsman Cancer Institute for her care, with special thanks to Dr. Jason Hunt and Sonya Bowman for their genuine compassion and concern.
A memorial service for Vicki was held on 11 May, followed by interment in the Farmington Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, Vicki requested that donations may be made to the Huntsman Cancer Institute.
