Vicki C. Bollenbacher, 68, of Rockford, Ohio, passed away on Thursday, October 3, 2019, at Adams Memorial Hospital in Decatur, Indiana.

She was born on November 10, 1950, in Decatur, Indiana to the late Gordon C. Suman and late Lois Eileen (Miller) Suman. Vicki was united in marriage to Clarence "Fred" Bollenbacher on February 22, 1969, in Berne, Indiana and he survives following 50 years of marriage.

Vicki was a member of the New Horizons Community Church in Rockford, Ohio. Vicki had the vision for the naming of the New Horizons Church when it was dedicated. She was a former member of the Red Hat Society in Rockford.

She was a Registered Nurse for over 30 years. She was a 1968 graduate of Adams Central High School in Monroe. Over the years following her graduation, she completed the coursework required for the completion of her Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing. She was a long-time employee of Shane Hill Nursing Home (now the Laurels of Shane Hill) but also worked at Adams - Woodcrest, Colonial Nursing Home in Rockford, where she was the Director of Nursing, and finally retired at Family LifeCare - Hospice in Berne. Following her retirement, she assisted her husband, Fred, as an Amish taxi driver.

But above all hobbies and of greatest importance, it was her love of God that directed her life.
