Vickie Lee (Johnson) Buchanan, 64, of Westerville, transitioned peacefully to Heaven at home on September 25, 2021, after a courageous 10 month battle with pancreatic and liver cancer. Born in Columbus on September 27, 1956, Vickie was preceded in death by her parents Russell M. and Ida (Legg) Johnson and her grandparents Herbert and Elsie Legg. Vickie is survived by her loving husband of 39 years, Rodney (Rod) Buchanan; and her beloved dog, Charlie; her brothers, Russell M. (Rusty) Johnson (Laura) of Brooksville, Florida, Herbert R.

was a Certified Purchasing Manager (CPM), whose

long work career included employment stints at Mac Tools (17); Northstar Technologies (4);Franklin University (3), The CBC Companies(6) and Central Ohio Transport -COTA (7). Vickie was so lucky to have such great and supportive quilting friends, especially Barb,

These ladies have also been so very supportive during her cancer battle. We also pay tribute to all the wonderful hospice nurses from Heartland Hospice, for their dedicated and loving care, who responded when ever needed, and were there during Vickie’s transition. In addition, we want to to thank all the
