RIP: Vicki Lanham

Just a few hours after we got the call of Shawn's aunt passing away, we also received a telephone call that Vicki passed away.  Vicki was married to an ex-coworker of Shawn's.  She was a super sweet lady and is dearly missed!  Here is her obituary that I found in the Evansville Courier and Press online.
