Vicki Lynn Offermann

Vicki Lynn Offermann, 63, of Urbandale, Iowa, passed away peacefully at her home,

with family present, on April 22, 2026. Born on November 7, 1962, in Des Moines, Iowa,

Vicki was a lifelong resident of Urbandale and a proud graduate of Urbandale High

School, Class of 1981. During her school years, she was a standout softball player and

earned All-Conference Honors, reflecting her talent, determination, and competitive

spirit.

In 1996, Vicki married the love of her life, Steve Offermann. Together, they built a

warm, welcoming home and became known as a fun-loving couple who brought people

together. Their pool parties, Fourth of July celebrations, and countless gatherings with

neighbors, friends, and family were filled with laughter, good food, and the easy joy of

being in their company. Vicki and Steve shared 29 years of marriage until Steve's

passing in February 2026.

Vicki was a vibrant, fun-loving soul whose warmth and humor touched everyone

fortunate enough to know her. She loved her family deeply, was an exceptional cook,

and she especially loved talking with people-chatting with neighbors and catching up

with family. Her yard was always blooming with beautiful flowers she tended with pride,

and her home was filled with the companionship of the cats and dogs she adored.

Some of her happiest moments were spent with her husband Steve, her stepdaughter,

nieces, and nephews-hosting sleepovers that turned into unforgettable adventures.

Trips to Adventureland, stomping through puddles in the rain, fireworks in the street,

dancing in the living room, capturing toads for pets, playing games, and all kinds of

horseplay became cherished traditions.

Vicki worked in various roles at popular local restaurants, including the Urbandale

Golf and Country Club, Chicago Speakeasy and Chi-Chi's Mexican. She brought energy

and humor to every workplace.

Vicki is survived by her sister Cindy Lewis of Urbandale, IA; brothers John Gregory

Miller (Lisa) of Omaha, NE, and Kenneth Miller (Yvonne) of Pewaukee, WI; and her

stepdaughter Jessica Kennedy Sinnwell (Tim) of Clive, IA; nieces and nephews:

Brandon Miller (Robyn) of West Allis, WI; Jonathan Miller of Spring Grove, IL; Kelsey

Miller of Milwaukee, WI; Amber Klein (Matt) of Omaha, NE; Grant Miller of Omaha,

NE; great-nieces Charlie Klein and Sylvia Miller, and great-nephew Cole Klein. She is

also survived by her mother-in-law Doris Offermann of New Vienna, Ia; in-laws: Kate

Offermann of Dyersville; Lindsay (Luke) Holmes, Alesha (Warren) Bynoe, Sophie
