Victoria Gantner Wood's Obituary
Victoria “Vickie” Wood passed away on March 6th 2020. After 59 years of building a home filled with loving family and friends, she left Hernando, MS for her heavenly home.
Vickie was born in Illinois and after living a well-traveled childhood, she settled in Memphis, TN. Here she would meet and marry the love of her life Jerry. Together they would have three beautiful children: Shannon, Zachary, and Michael.
During her lifetime, she was a loving mother who was passionate about her children and grandchildren. Later in life, her passions evolved to include home health care. She enjoyed coffee, traveling, and reading. One could always find her cheering proudly at her boy’s and grandchildren’s sporting events.
She was a caring spirit who brought a bright light with her everywhere she went. With a joyful smile and infectious laugh, she reminded others the feeling of “home”. Forever with us as a guardian spirit, Vickie is reunited in Jerry’s arms.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers that memorials be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation or ALS Association.
