Jeanne Marie Heidepriem (Vickerman) 62, passed away suddenly on July 21, 2021.

Jeanne was born on November 20, 1958 in Rapid City to her loving parents who raised her and her five siblings on a ranch just north of Rapid. Even in her later years, she was very close with her brothers and sister, rarely letting a day pass without calling them or stopping over for a visit.

Ranch life made Jeanne tough, resilient and smart, with a huge, tender heart and warm, welcoming energy.

She spent most of her life in South Dakota, where she graced the lives of many friends, co workers and even strangers over the years.

In her early adult years, she met her best friend, who also doubled as the love of her life, Mike Heidepriem. She went on to marry Mike and raise their three children together between living in South Dakota, Arizona and Idaho. Her family meant everything to her. This is especially true about her nine grandchildren who became the lights of her life.

She will forever be remembered by her deeply compassionate nature, her ability to always cheer people up, and her drive to always lend a helping hand when given the chance. She will be missed by many and forgotten by none.

Jeanne is preceded in death by her parents, Donald and Harriet Vickerman; her husband, Michael Heidepriem; her son, Mathew Heidepriem;and two nephews, Tim Vickerman and Chase Ray.

She leaves behind her brothers, Jeff, Tim, Paul and Rocky Vickerman; her sister, Ruth Vickerman; her three children, Nicolette Sigety, Michael Heidepriem, Heather Heidepriem; and nine grandchildren.

Jeanne would have enjoyed those that loved and cherished her to come together for a Celebration of life, which will be held on Jeanne's 63rd birthday, Saturday, November 20, 2021. The destination for her celebration will be decided closer to the date of her birthday.
