Until We Meet Again

Vickie Woodstock

Obituary Vickie Church Woodstock Cedar City, Utah Vickie Church Woodstock entered the spirit world on October 11, 2012 at the age of 56 after a hard-fought battle with leukemia. She was born September 27, 1956 in Cedar City, Utah to Richard LaVon and Ilene LeBaron Church. At the age of five her family moved to Mesa, Arizona where she graduated from Mesa High School and Mesa Community College. While a sophomore in high school Vickie met her sweetheart, Jonathan Gregory Woodstock. After his mission to Canada they married for time and all eternity in the Mesa, Arizona temple on May 20, 1978. Vickie was a constant support to her husband in his work with the LDS Church Educational System.  Vickie and Jon are the parents of six children: Amber (married to Garrett Wastlund), Jamen (married to Krista Turner), Jace, Katie (married to Steve Oliver), Scott (soon to be married to Danielle Schwarz), and Daniel. Her children were her life. She loved them so much and prayed for them every single day. Her grandchildren brought her so much joy and happiness: Kimball, Jaden, Toren, Kody, Ander, Grace, Kai, Spencer, and Taylor. One of her greatest regrets in leaving this life early was that she wouldn't be at the births of Hinckley Victoria (born September 26, 2012) and Roderick, and all her grandchildren yet to come. Grandma will be their guardian angel.  Vickie was a graduate of Brigham Young University and received a Masters of Education from Utah State University. She was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and held many callings in the auxiliary organizations including, Primary President and Young Women's President. Her last calling in the Cedar Meadows Ward was as Primary chorister. The children loved her as she worked her enthusiastic magic in teaching the children the songs of Zion. She was deeply touched by all the get well cards she received from the children while in the hospital.  Vickie is preceded in death by her father, Richard LaVon Church and her brother-in-law, Edwin Sabin. She dearly loved her mother and her brothers, Richie Church and Greg (and Somrong) Church, and her sisters, Brenda Sabin, Sallee (and Stewart) Kauwe, and Christina (and Tray) Judd. She loved talking on the phone with her family, sometimes for hours. Her nephews and nieces always held a special place in her heart: Jonathan, Cami, Michael, David, Stephen, Star, Ivan, Matthew, Vernon, Sanoe, Noelani, Adam, Keola, Rebecca, Paula, Gregory, Joseph, Rachel, Samuel, Nathan, and Diana. Family was everything to Vickie Church Woodstock! It is fitting that one of her favorite hymns was "Families Can be Together Forever."
