Vikki Lynne (Thomas) Harris
Born August 7, 1959 in Oak Cliff, Texas.
Died October 30, 2021 in Richardson, Texas at age 62.
Vikki resided in Wylie, Texas.
Born to Ann and Cecil Thomas, Vikki moved to Sunnyvale as an early teen.
She attended North Mesquite High School. In 1977, after seeing Saturday Night Fever Vikki knew she
wanted to dance. She joined Arthur Murry dance school and soon became a ballroom dance instructor.
Vikki entered and won many competitions. She carried her love of dance the rest of her life, even
teaching a class at church and giving private lessons to future brides and grooms.
On June 24, 1994 Vikki met Billy on a baseball field. They got engaged in October 1995 and married on
September 21, 1996. Tyler came along a year and a half later and Sammy 5 years after that. Until they
came along the only thing she knew about baseball was it was a place to go and sweat. It wasn't long till
Vikki became THE BASEBALL MOM (and umpire baiter). Vikki used that experience later to become THE
BAND MOM (and judge). Vikki's greatest fear was when both boys had something going on at the same
time in different places. She loved them both fiercely and would do anything for them. Her final two
months proved how hard she would fight.
Vikki is preceded in death by Ann Summers (Mother), Tim Thomas (Brother) and Gail Thomas (Sister).
Survived by William Harris (Husband), Tyler Harris (Son), Samuel Harris (Son), Cecil Thomas (Father),
sisters Lisa Thomas Swank (Paul), Becki Thomas Werner (Michael), brothers Michael Thomas (Tiffany)
and Jody Thomas as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
