If any of you have been around the 4 and 5 pm class these last few years you may of met or seen Vicki Grover.

Originally Fancy Pant’s client Miss Vicki has always been an upstanding member of our community. Her and her partner came in for a first day and the partner, well, had a hard go of it.  That didn’t stop Vicki though.  :-)

I’ve always respected her for her individuality and hard work ethic.  However, I’ve always liked her for her bandanas and  the little giggle she does.  She’s an amateur carpenter and apparently fearless on her mountain bike.

Last Thursday Vicki retired from the IT department at the Vancouver Police Department.  This Thursday coming she is moving over to Vancouver Island to retire.  Don’t worry though, she will be working out at CF Cowichan.

I’ve begged her to come in on Tuesday and workout at my 5 pm class one last time.  True to form she is playing hard to get.  Hopefully she makes it in.

So long Vicki.  You always brightened my day and I will miss you greatly.

Love,

Shep

  4. WHAAAAT!!?!?! CONGRATS VICKI!!!!!!!!!

    You'll be missed dearly. You were that rock I came to depend on at the Madlab. Stalwart in your commitment and work ethic. You set a perfect example for all of us to just shut up and work hard!
