Childers, Victoria Mary    
 
Victoria Mary Childers passed away Feb. 20, 2006 at Alderson Convalescent 
Hospital. She was born in San Francisco April 26, 1905. Her parents, Michilina 
and Francisco Bertolucci, had immigrated to the United States in 1900 from 
Lucca, Italy.

Following the San Francisco earthquake, her family relocated to Woodland. 
Victoria graduated from Dingle Elementary School and attended Woodland High 
School. She went to work at age 16 at what was then Martha's Bakery and is now 
Timothy's Bakery. She later worked for many years at the Woodland Laundry, and 
then the Woodland French Laundry from where she retired.

Victoria was a great walker, loved to shop and in her retirement years enjoyed 
many activities at the Senior Center.

Victoria celebrated her 100th birthday last April with two parties, and 
salutations from President Bush and past president William Clinton.

She is survived by her daughter Ima Jean Badger and son-in-law Bob Badger of 
Woodland, granddaughters Vicky Kaleta and husband Paul of Lake Tahoe, Cindy 
Ithurburn of Yuba City and grandson Dan Badger of Lockeford and his fiancˇe 
Kristy Geer of Davis. She is also survived by six great-grandchildren, Karin 
and Casey Kaleta of Lake Tahoe and Michelle, Christinia, Bert and Bob 
Ithurburn of Yuba City.

Preceding her were her parents, brother Adolph "Monk" Bertolucci and husband 
Wallace H. Childers in 1966.

Victoria was cherished by her family and her wonderful sense of humor and 
common sense approach to life will be missed. The family will celebrate her 
life and wish to extend many thanks to the Alderson staff for their care and 
concern over these last years. McNary's Chapel is assisting with arrangements, 
and remembrances in her honor should be the donor's choice.
