Vickie Renèe Vanderpool went to meet the Lord after a four year battle with cancer early Monday morning, December 28, 2020 at Geisinger South in Wilkes-Barre, PA.

Vickie was born on May 8, 1959 in Meshoppen, PA, the daughter of the late Donna Day Newman (d. January 27, 2007).  As a child, she enjoyed creating art in the form of ceramics, making dozens of pieces inspired by Native Americans.

Vickie was a graduate of Wyalusing Valley High School with the class of 1977. She married Philip C. Vanderpool on May 24, 1981, and have been together for the last 39 years. For all of those years, Vickie enjoyed being a housewife, and in her spare time she enjoyed working in her flower garden, and watching the wildlife and the spectacular view from her home looking over the Susquehanna River.

For the last 25 years, Vickie was a staple at Mark's Valley View Restaurant. She always sat at the first stool twice a day and visited with her many friends. She loved animals, especially German Shepherds, losing her beloved "Girlie" a few years ago. Throughout the winter, she was always looking forward to the first signs of spring, so that she could put out her hummingbird feeders.

Surviving is her husband of 39 years, Philip Vanderpool. Also surviving her is her brother, Jimmy Reese, of Wyalusing, PA; her sister Shelly Raison, of Laceyville, PA.; and her youngest brother and his wife, Kenny and Tammy Vaow of Mehoopany, PA, Vickie was also loved by many nieces, nephews and brother and sister in laws.
