Victoria Davidson Mickiewicz, 88, passed away peacefully Saturday, March 6, 2021. Born in Milton Oct. 23, 1932, to Willa and Uhland Davidson, she moved to Toms River, N.J., in 1956.

She was the deputy tax assessor for Toms River Township for 55 years before retiring in 2016. She also worked as the tax assessor for Island Heights, N.J., for over 30 years before retiring in 2017. Vicky, as she liked to be called, was also the current treasurer of the Gloria Chapter of Eastern Star of which she was a member for over 50 years. She was a member and officer of the Association of Municipal Assessors of New Jersey (AMANJ).

Vicky was preceded in death by second husband Dr. Edwin P. Mickiewicz and first husband Robert Louis Lockerman. She is survived by her daughter, Linda Clarke and her husband Rich Clarke, her son Larry Lockerman; and her five stepchildren, including Penny Spearance, Ginny Coull Dufour, Michael Mickiewicz, Doug Mickiewicz and Paul Mickiewicz. She doted on her grandchildren Christina Manion, Mandie Anson, Laura Lockerman, Melyssa Lockerman, Robby Lockerman, Tim Spearance, Meredith Spearance, Jennifer Coull Dennis, Anastasia Mickiewicz, Sonia Mickiewicz, Adam Mickiewicz, Anthony Mickiewicz, Alex Mickiewicz, Douglas Hunter Mickiewicz and Michael Paul Mickiewicz. She was also a wonderful great-grandmother to Kalvin, Jayson, Alice, Charles, Shawn, Chloe, Iain, Jaxon, Avah, Hayleigh and Raegan. She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Ceil McGotty.

Vicky enjoyed spending time with her family, playing cards with friends, reading, watching Bonanza and the Johnny Cash Show, and traveling the world. She always provided support and love for her family, bringing all generations together as often as possible, especially during the holidays. She was truly a remarkable, loving, caring and compassionate woman with a beautiful soul. She will forever be missed although she will stay in our hearts and thoughts until we meet again.

In lieu of flowers, the family wishes memorial contributions be made to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
