Vickie S. Foy, 66, Marion, stepped into the presence of God after a long battle with leukemia at 4:38 am on Saturday, August 20, 2022, at Franciscan Health Indianapolis.
She was born in Muncie, Indiana, on Sunday, October 23, 1955, to Robert and Allie (Worley) Fulton. On August 16, 1981, she married William “Bill” L. Foy, who survives.
Vickie graduated from Eastbrook High School (1974) and attended Ivy Tech Community College. She was a manager with K-Mart Stores for several years and was a supervisor in the Cutting Department for five years with Butterworth Industries. She was a Patriot Guard Rider, life member of the VFW and American Legion Auxiliary, Indiana Sheriff’s Association, Old Hog Motorcycle Club, Moose Lodge, and National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association.
Vickie enjoyed fishing with her husband in Minnesota, riding her motorcycle, and participating in the Mississinewa 1812. She was a certified cannoniere. Vickie also enjoyed embroidery, reading, word searches, and playing practical jokes. She was witty and had quick comebacks. The more tired she got, the quicker she became.
