Text of obituary:

Vickie Lynn Worth passed away Apr. 1 following a heart attack. She was born July 26, 1955 to Bert and Lois Thomson in Mission, B.C. She was baptized June 1, 1986. She called on God daily for strength and guidance. She found joy in things some take for granted. She was outgoing and made friends with neighbours; she sparked a sense of community spirit. Despite the limitations placed on her by post polio syndrome, she was often a model of vibrant faith. Limited by her energy, she was forced to choose between gardening, making dinner, going out that evening or going to church the next morning. She sacrificed a lot of energy for her family and friends. She is remembered as a wonderful wife and mother who loved God; she had a strong faith, a sensitive, kind and loving spirit and an inspiring love of life. She is mourned by her husband John; daughter Janet; son Michael; parents; and brother Bill. The funeral was Apr. 8 in Cedar Park MB Church, Delta, B.C., with Dave Esau ministering.
