He was always willing to lend a helping hand building various garages and decks for family and friends. When Vic was older, he enjoyed putting together thousand-piece puzzles. He had a system down to where it made putting together the puzzle efficiently. His greatest joy was his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He lit up whenever they came through a room.

I met Vic through my friend Shirley. I visited him and Shirley at his home several times. I really thought he had a lot of wisdom. He said to me one time, “Bad things happen in this world.” I felt a connection with him, because he lost a son and a grandson. I also lost a son. I visited him at Elim a few times. He loved to put puzzles together. He said his one son has been in a nursing home for awhile. I could tell he really loved his children. He will be greatly missed. Rest in peace my friend!!
