She was born on June 19, 1939 to the late Victor and Elizabeth (Wilson) Lund. Vickie was raised in Wakefield and was a graduate of Wakefield High School Class of 1957, a member of the Wakefield Majorettes.

Vickie was married to her high school sweetheart, William Simoneau , Jr., for over 60 years. Together they moved to Lynnfield where they raised a family and created many cherished memories. She was outgoing and social, making friends everywhere she went. She supported her family by attending innumerable performances and sporting events to cheer on her children, and her grandchildren.

Vickie was affectionately known to her grandchildren as "Grammie Claus" due to her boundless charity and frequent visits bearing gifts. She was an avid shopper, always collecting coupons and looking for the next big sale.

Vickie was recently predeceased by her husband. They are now reunited in heaven after a brief separation of only five weeks.
Victoria leaves, a daughter: Susan Francoeur and her husband Edward of North Andover, a son: William Simoneau III and his wife Jennifer of North Andover, and five cherished grandchildren: Sarah Francoeur, Courtney Francoeur, Brendan Simoneau , Jared Simoneau , and Gavin Simoneau , and two beloved granddogs: Darwin and Maverick.

A small private funeral service will be held at the McDonald Funeral Home, Wakefield. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her name to the Massachusetts General Hospital Interstitial Lung Disease Research Center.
