Vicky DuPont, 89, formerly of Oregon and recently a resident of Genoa Care Center,was born in Toledo on May 8, 1921 to Victoria and John Myers Sr. On Thursday, October 21, 2010, she was surrounded by her family'™s love at Hospice of NWO where the earth angel'™s assisted her in transition to her eternal life. Vicky was reunited with her loving husband, Donald; son, David; grandson, Mark Granger; brother, Bill, and her parents.
Vicky and Don spent many years traveling in their Coachman trailer with family and friends to the southwestern states. Victoria also spent much of her time caring for others. She volunteered at Sacred Heart Church, St. Louis Soup Kitchen and the Oregon Senior Center. She enjoyed dancing and her aerobic classes late into her life. Vicky was also very involved with her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great- grandchildren.
She will forever be remembered for her wonderful Hungarian cooking, especially her Cabbage Balls, chicken noodle soup and Hunky pastries. There were always more than enough to share with family and friends. Vicky was never afraid to speak her mind with her no nonsense attitude and stayed feisty to the end.
