Victor,I can honestly say that the few years that I knew you made an impression upon me that will not be forgotten. Your honesty and earned friendship will be missed. There definitly aren't many left like you. Everyone can take comfort knowing that no matter where your journeys may take you,that you are calling it like you see it.And that my friend is what I admired about you most...

Mother, we all share in the pain you feel for the loss of Victor. I know he is smiling down on all of us, because now he is happy and free again. Just imagine what heaven is in for with your mischievous husband’s arrival. Heaven will never be the same.

We all love and miss you, Victor
