Victoria was a spunky, lovable and silly little girl. She loved watching “The Wizard of Oz”, “The Little Mermaid”, playing dress up and being with her family and friends. With a head full of curls and a silly personality, she really was a joy to be around. Victoria was diagnosed with T-cell leukemia and had a bone marrow transplant, however the cancer returned 7 months later.  She was only 4 years old when she received her angel wings, but during her time here she touched the hearts of many. Victoria was a hero in the eyes of so many and in her memory we would like to bring awareness and help other children battling this disease.
