I worked with Vic at Moyno and it was always an adventure! Vic always said what he thought and stuck to his guns, no matter the consequences. He was a man of integrity and honor who loved his Country and his family and did his job extremely well. Thanks for the memories, Victor.
Rest in Peace. I will miss you.
