Vickie Lynn Brown

It is with profound sadness that we announce that Vickie L. Brown passed away on November 6th, 2026. Her generous spirit touched countless lives. Vickie was born in Biloxi, Mississippi, Keesler AFB on June 27, 1954 to Ralph and Joan Brown. The family moved to Albuquerque in July, 1958, where she lived until her passing. She was a member of the first graduating class at Eldorado High School in 1972 (go Eagles). She completed classes at the University of New Mexico and worked as an accountant in the environmental testing field.

Vickie had a great love for her dogs. In her early years, she grew up mostly with German Shepherds. She then found/rescued several special companions from the pound. She loved spending time at the family cabin that was located east of Durango, CO. The family built the cabin, starting in 1978, and she enjoyed many wonderful memories until it was sold in 2006. Vickie loved traveling throughout Colorado, plus trips to fill her addiction of a mouse named Mickey to California and Florida. California trips usually included stops at Laughlin and Las Vegas.

She is survived by her brother Ralph "Skip" Brown. She was preceded in death by her dad, Ralph L. Brown Sr., and mother, Joan S. Brown.
