Vicki L Pantele

Vicki Pantele was born to Frank and Patricia King on July 19, 1955, and passed away on November 27, 2023, surrounded by her husband, Nick and her children, Brian and Stephanie. Vicki grew up in Trenton, Michigan and graduated from Trenton High School in 1974. In 1978, Vicki was led to the Lord by her future sister-in-law, Becky, while they were working at the same law firm. Later in that same year, she met her husband Nick Pantele at Becky’s wedding and on May 22, 1982, Nick and Vicki were married. They had 3 children, Nick Jr, Brian & Stephanie.

Vicki worked as a legal secretary for 32 years until they moved to Surprise, Arizona. In 2012 she started working at the church she and her family were attending as a secretary. She was the mission’s secretary and oversaw the scholarship program for their Christian School. In 2021 she officially retired.

Vicki was well known for her sweet and giving spirit. She always had a smile on her face and made those around her feel welcome. Vicki loved many things, such as reading, sewing, board games, romance movies, Bob Segar and the Detroit Red Wings (especially Shanahan). Aside from all these things, she loved her family the most. She was a loving, kind and supportive wife as well as a devoted, encouraging and caring mother & grandmother. Vicki loved Christ with all her heart and that love poured out in her actions towards others and she is now dancing in the presence of her Lord.

Vicki is survived by her husband Nick Pantele along with her children; Nick Jr, Brian and his wife Victoria, Stephanie and her husband Adoni; her grandchildren Luca, Felix, Flora, Alfred, Quinn and Isabel; her Brother Mike King and his wife Joanne.
