April 12, 1952 – April 8, 2024

Vickie was born on April 12th, 1952, 3rd child of Walter and Esther Virginia Watkins Souder in Olney Maryland. She lived in Damascus most of her childhood with brothers Wayne, Dicky, and sister Paula. She graduated from Damascus High School in 1970 where she enjoyed theater and singing.
In 1969, Vickie met Steve Shortt in high school. Vickie and Steve went on to have one child, Jacob Andrew Shortt. Vickie and Steve fell in love young and had the best fun and adventures they possibly could through their almost 40 years of marriage. She valued her family and friends the most. She was a free spirit who loved all living things. She led the most wonderful life working hard as an Insurance Office Manager as well as working the books for her husband Steve’s excavating business that they owned till 2012 after the loss of Steve. She spent the remaining years in New Castle Colorado where they would have retired together. The work she was most proud of was her last job working for “Be Good to People”. She lived and breathed the meaning of Be Good to People. She lived for the moments she was able to see and visit her son and family. Her happiness was seeing them happy and doing anything she could for them. She wasn’t born in the mountains, but she got there as fast as she could!
Vickie was predeceased by her husband Steve Shortt, Mother Virginia, Father Walter, Brother Dicky, and her best friend and sister Paula Moxley. Vickie is survived by brother Wayne and wife Judy, son Jake Shortt, Daughter-in-law Malia Shortt, Grandchildren Stevie Marie Shortt, Maisie Dorn, Ashton Dorn, Tyler Lockhart, and many grand-pets, Great Grandchild Beau James Dorn and Beloved Pooch Poppy
