Vey worked in billing for the Bremerton Clinic retiring from The Doctors Clinic. After she retired, she volunteered at Peninsula Community Health, Sons of Norway & Bremerton United Methodist Church. Vey was known for her big smile & quick laugh. She loved to be always on the go. Vey loved to cook & was always happy to feed you. She enjoyed having company at her Tiger Lake home & watching them swim & fish off her dock. She was an avid Seahawk 12th man. Vey was a notoriously terrible driver scaring us all with her lead foot.
