Vickie Lynn was an energetic soul who spread love, hope and joyful enthusiasm to all who were blessed to meet her. She was the mother of 4 incredible children and had 9 beautiful grandchildren. She was a standout in the midwest comedy scene and created the Black Women in Business Expo which was her pride and joy, an annual Expo that brought together black-owned businesses in the Stateline area to promote networking and the sharing of business lessons and the entrepreneurial spirit. Vickie's imprint on her community cannot be overstated.

Vickie battled with severe illness throughout her life and on Friday, February 3, 2023, she succumbed to an injury linked to her healthcare issues. This Go Fund Me is intended to help with final expenses and a memorial service. Anything that you can give would be helpful.

Vickie is my sister. She was loved and will continue to be missed by all of us including, I'm sure, the many people reading this who she made such a strong connection with.

Update

We are so grateful to everyone who has donated and humbled to know how very much she was loved by her community. We have met our goal, anything above and beyond this will go towards supporting Vickie's kids and grandkids. Thank you for your generosity and love.
