Vicki Michelle Andriano

Vicki Michelle Andriano 54, passed away on June 27, 2025, at Portneuf Medical Center in Pocatello, Idaho.

She was born on June 14, 1971, in San Diego, California, to Victor Baum and Linda Force Baum. Vicki grew up and went to High School in Las Vegas, Nevada. After graduation, she began a career in the gaming industry as a dealer, and later promoted to pit boss, overseeing all table games.

Vicki moved to Soda Springs, Idaho, in 2005 where her son, Joey Long, was born. Shortly after his birth, they moved to Arizona.

She married Christopher Andriano in June 2014, they later separated.

Vicki moved back to Soda Springs in May 2024 to be closer to family.

Vicki enjoyed playing pool and won many tournaments, planting flowers, painting, and making projects with beads and anything involved with being outside in the sunshine. Vicki was always the life of the party and never met a stranger. She was described as being like a wild horse, unable to be tamed.

Vicki was very proud of her son, Joey, for his service in the Navy that began in 2024.

She is preceded in death by her father, Victor Merritt Baum, grandparents Don and Beatrice Baum, and Gene and Mary Force.

Vicki is survived by her son, Joey Long stationed in Norfolk, VA; beloved dog Fritz “FatBoy,” mother Linda Hart of Soda Springs, ID; sister Jodi (Shawn) Suter of Soda Springs, ID; sister Kasie Hart of Soda Springs, ID; and many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. She will be greatly missed.
