Vicki Anderson, of Loveland Colorado, passed away at her home on November 30th, 2020.

She was surrounded by her loved ones and as the sun rose, she left us.

She is survived by her husband Dick Anderson of 41 years, three sons Mark, Kirk, and Alex, three grandsons Andy, Otto, and Kaylor, her parents Jim and Ellen and siblings Kevin, Becky, and Melody.

Vicki grew up in Lyndon, Kansas and moved to Colorado to join her husband after college. She lived the last 30 years of her life on their beautiful property next to the Buckhorn creek outside of Loveland. Her home was filled with music, good food, and lots of love.

She graduated with a BS from Kansas State University, where she met her husband. She had wildcat pride throughout her life and followed K-State basketball & Football with enthusiasm.

Vicki was a master seamstress & craftswoman who never met a sewing pattern she couldn’t master. She was always quick to sit down at her sewing machine or grab a glue gun and create everything from clothing to custom home decorations. She often crocheted blankets for friends’ newborn babies.

She loved to ride tandem bicycle, completing the Bike Across Kansas Ride six times with her husband and sons. She loved bluegrass & folk music and spent many September days at the Walnut Valley Music Festival in Winfield Kansas.

Vicki enjoyed clog dancing, Zumba classes, and camping in the outdoors. She loved to camp at Hermit Park with her family and in her later years she treasured the RV trips out west to visit her sons & grandchildren in California.

Faith was a pillar of Vicki’s life. She taught Sunday school at Mountain View Presbyterian, was a member of Crossroads Church in Loveland, and completed several Bible Study Fellowship sessions in Fort Collins.

After their sons were raised, Vicki began a successful career in electronics manufacturing. She worked in manufacturing procurement and office management.

Vicki was in treatment for Ocular Melanoma, a rare cancer, for two years. The cancer quickly spread, and she had the foresight to help plan for her family’s future without her. She will be remembered for her grace, positive attitude & loving, generous heart.

Two Celebrations will be held in the coming months: one at her home in Loveland and another at Lake Pomona, Kansas. If you would like to be notified of these events please make a note on her caring bridge page or facebook page.
