Obituary For Victoria "Vicki" McGuire

MADISON – Vicki McGuire, age 70, unexpectedly passed from recently being diagnosed with reoccurring cancer on Friday, December 23, 2022 at UW hospital.

She loved being around friends and family.

    RIP Vicki! Still can't believe you are gone. So many memories of laughter with you and our family. From house water fights, swimming and hanging in our pool, camping, drinking Diet Coke, furry babies, your red fancy car, our May Birthday's being so close together. I could go on and on. You will be so dearly missed by all who knew you. Until we meet again ❤️🤍❤️ - My deepest sympathies

    Our sympathy from my family to Rik & Vicki's families. I have so many great memories of all the crazy things we did during our camping years, quiet time at the cabin & the hundreds of euchre games we played in all the years we vacationed in Mexico. A reassuring presence. A Light when times are dark, A hand reaching out, is what friendship & family is about.

    Always remember the great times in Manzanillo Mexico with the Villa F and casa Altavista. Vicki always had a smile on her face, and truly enjoyed the January warmth and pleasures of the Mexican vacationland..... condolences from all of us from ripple management.....

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

James S. | July 2020

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
