Vicky was born on November 3, 1946, in American Fork, Utah to Lagrand & Donna Coomer at American Fork Hospital and is preceded in death by her parents, sister, and son Gary.
Vicky met the love of her life Dennis Charley in 1974 and they married in 1976. On February 21, 2024, they celebrated their 48th Anniversary.
Vicky and Dennis raised each other’s children. They loved to be outdoors camping and drag racing. Later in life, they dedicated their time to running the family’s ranch in Reno, NV.
Family was incredibly special to Vicky, and her greatest love was cats. Whether she was fostering or rescuing them, she always had several cats to care for. Atty Cat (short for attitude) the one she bottle-fed will greatly miss her.
Her dear husband, Dennis Charley retired to care for her and they call Fallon, Nevada their home. Family vacations to Disneyworld several times, San Diego, Yosemite, and Ely are memories that will be forever cherished. Vicky will be greatly missed by all her loved ones.
