Victoria (Vicki) Angeles Belmonte Uselton of Snead Island, passed away February 18, 2017 after a courageous battle against cancer. Vicki was born in Tampa, FL on May 30, NOYDB (none of your damn biz) and was a lifelong resident and beachcomber of Florida except for a few short years in the Hoosier State.
Vicki was very active in her community and with anything related to her children. Over the years, she was active in the Palmetto Elementary School PTO and Student Advisory Council and Lincoln Middle School SAC, President of the Palmetto High School SAC and was an active member of the Athletic Booster Club.

Vicki enjoyed her association with the "Lively" Snead Island Bunco Babes and also enjoyed the benefit of being part of the "Stoners" of Snead Island Crabbing Group.
Vicki loved traveling and has enjoyed many trips to their Cabin in Maggie Valley, NC and great vacations from island hopping in the BVIs, annual family reunions in Englewood Beach, FL to Skiing in Park City, UT. She could also make the most of just a simple boating outing to Egmont Key or Longboat Pass. Making memories with family and friends encompasses the passions that Vicki lived by.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Leon Belmonte, Mary Garcia Belmonte, Step-Mother, Sue Belmonte, and by two brothers, Casey Szada and Eddie Belmonte.

She will forever be remembered and treasured for all the joy she brought to the many, many lives she touched. We are privileged to call you all our friends. With much love, John, Teri & Taylor."
