Vicki married Leonard Michael Maykowski on February 10, 1962 at Notre Dame Catholic Church in Sharon. Len and Vicki spent a majority of their married lives together in Colorado. Vicki worked in a variety of nursing specialties and as a director of nursing and nurse educator at various institutions around the state. She was a member of St. Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Church in Colorado Springs volunteering as a member of the Daughers of Mary. She was a woman of incredible generosity and faith.
