Vicki Lynn Holzknecht

Vicki Lynn Holzknecht, née Crain, peacefully passed away on March 10th, 2026, surrounded by the love of her cherished family. Born on August 5, 1951, Vicki lived a life marked by deep faith, unwavering devotion to her family, and a generous heart that touched all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Pauline and Thomas Sawyer; her dear husband, Keith; her daughters, Victoria and Amanda; her grandson, Jaden; and her sister, Barbara.

Vicki leaves behind a loving legacy in her siblings Danny (Sonja), Rita (Greg), Debby, and Ann (Frank); her sons Bryan (Melody), Philip (Ariel), and Kevin (Megan); and her treasured grandchildren Kayleigh, Oliver, Phoenix, and Bennett.

Known for her beautiful voice and a remarkable talent for baking sweet treats, Vicki expressed her love through the food she lovingly prepared and the care she so freely gave. She was always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need and brought joy with her quick wit and signature sarcasm that brightened any room.

Her family will forever hold dear her humor, her comforting hugs, and above all, the immense love she offered so effortlessly. We are deeply grateful to have been touched by her warmth and spirit, and her memory will live on in the hearts of all who loved her.

A visitation will take place from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm on Wednesday, March 18th at Newcomer Funeral Home (10304 Dixie Hwy). Her funeral mass will begin at 10:00 am on Thursday, March 19th at Sts. Simon and Jude Catholic Church (4335 Hazelwood Ave).
