Vicki Forner

Vicki Elaine Forner, age 73, of Cleveland, WI, died on Thursday, November 10, 2016. Vicki was born on May 18, 1943 to the late Charles and Mildred (Spanel) Sherbon in Washington, D.C. and was raised in Flint, MI. She graduated from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, with a Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene in 1965.

Vicki married Albert A. Forner in Fenton, MI, on June 6, 1969 and they moved to Sheboygan County to start their lives together as teachers at Lakeshore Technical Institute. Vicki was an LTI instructor for the Dental Hygiene Program, pioneered their Dental Assistant Program, and served the eastern Wisconsin community as a dental hygienist for over 35 years. Her true passions were reading, defeating her husband at chess, outwitting her children with jokes, and appreciating the beauty of Lake Michigan's coastline.

Vicki is survived by her husband, Albert Forner; children, Matthew Forner of Bellingham, WA; Carolyn (Chad Farrell) Forner of Eagle River, AK; Valerie (Kyle) Tokarz of East Greenwich, RI; Ginger Lang of Anacortes, WA; and Joy (Todd) Eichorst of Virginia Beach, VA; six grandchildren, Ayden, Mason, Alexander, Evlyn, Klaudia, and Cyrus; and many friends and loved ones.

Vicki was preceded in death by her parents Mildred and Charles, her sister Debbie, and her son Albert.
