Renee' Lynn Vick, 66

Renee’ Lynn Vick, 66, “rolled into heaven” on Sept. 11, 2016, after “crashing into the pearly gates.”

She was born July 16, 1950, in Kalispell to Douglas and Margaret (Gillet) Anderson. “Our socialite and little ray of happiness” grew up in Kalispell, “cheerleading her way into all of our hearts.”

“Ms. Full of Life” began working for “those” cable companies as a “complaint navigator,” a job she held for most of her humorous life. After “cancellation” of her position, she briefly rested and contemplated retirement briefly. Her “blonde moments” were renewed and given a chance to flourish at Jo-Ann Fabrics, where she developed her “love everyone” mantra. This last year she combined her “complaint navigator” expertise and “love everyone” mantra into her role as “Transmitter of Excellence” for Eagle Transit.

"'Mama Nae' loved her family (well, most of the time), her friends (unconditionally), her fur babies (we all have wanted to be reincarnated as one her animals), camping, lounging in large bodies of water or rivers, and crafting her own vocabulary that most have never understood."

Renee’ was preceded in death by her father, Douglas Anderson; her dad, Wallace Enevold; mother, Margaret Enevold; and husband, Roger Vick.

She is survived by her brother, Art (Cheryl) Anderson of Dundee, Oregon; son, Chad (Tara) Fincher of Kalispell and their children, Jadeyn and Noah; daugher, Heidi (Scott) Neether and their children, Tucker, Tre and Teagan, of Kalispell; great-grandchild, Athena Fincher of Kalispell; and her precious fur babies, Griz, Chewy and Pookie.

A memorial service will be held at 12:30 p.m. on Sept. 17 at Buffalo Hill Funeral Home, 1890 Hwy 93 North in Kalispell. The family will be greeting friends and relatives immediately following the service at the Eagles Hall, 37 1st Street East in Kalispell.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be made to the Humane Society of Northwest Montana, 100 Adopt A Pet Way, Kalispell, Montana, 59901.
