Vicki was known for her tremendous faith in The Lord. She touched many lives through teaching, missionary work and her sweet spirit and will be missed by many. She loved to sign singing in church and missionary work. Her favorite verse when she was suffering with the loss of her son Cameron and battling cancer is Job 1:21, \u201cAnd he said, \u201cNaked I came from my mother\u2019s womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.\u201d Now she went home with The Lord.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Welch was preceded in death by: her father, James Harp, mother, Dorothy Graham and her son Cameron Allen Welch.<\/p>\n

She is survived by her husband, Toby Welch, of the home; sisters Kim Lester, Dawn Harp Keating, Jennifer Harp Ronan and brother Aaron Harp.<\/p>\n

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorials to Odyssey Hospice Willowbrook, 13325 Hargrave Road, Suite 230, Houston, Texas 77070.<\/p>\n
