Vi loved gardening, fishing, baking and had a real love for animals. She liked talking to people about the bible and sharing her faith. Her favourite scripture was revelations 21: 3 and 4 “With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say, “Look, the tent of God is with mankind and he will abide with them and they will be his people and God himself will be with them and he will wipe our every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore, the former things have passed away.”
