Victor Mueller

Victor Brendon Mueller, 27, was struck by a motor vehicle Friday Oct. 3, 2014, in Midvale, Utah, where he died instantly.

Victor was born July 14, 1987, in Cheverly, Md., to Brent Wade Mueller and Almedis Rodriguez Mueller. He spent his first six years between Maryland, New York and Arizona while his father was finishing medical school along with medical residency training. He spent the rest of his adventurous life in Idaho Falls.

He graduated from Idaho Falls High School with the class of 2005. He was currently enrolled at Idaho State University to become a physical therapist.

Victor had a passion to live each day to fullest. Victor loved to pull pranks along with making people laugh. He went the extra mile to give a helping hand to anyone in need. He was the definition of a "good Samaritan," helping complete strangers or friends with car troubles to get back on the road or pulling people out of snow banks. Victor was always the first to rise to the occasion and lend his assistance. His passion in mechanics and cars led him to make many friendships. He is known city wide for having a contagious smile and unforgettable humor.

Growing up, Victor was blessed to enjoy many activities with his family. The Muellers love to travel, enjoy each others company and share many laughs together. Victor was the jokester of the family. He never missed the chance to create funny business. He taught his two sisters, Jana and Brianna, to join in on his playfulness. His sisters looked up to their brother as their greatest role model. You could never take him seriously with his humorous comical personality. There was never a dull moment in his presence.

In 2008, Victor married Ashley Corrigan. The following year they welcomed their daughter, Nekella Faith Mueller, to the world. She brought instant joy and happiness to their lives. In his eyes, being a father was the greatest gift. Victor and Ashley later divorced.

He found love again when Chelsea Jensen and her son, Creek, entered his life. The joy of fatherhood was then doubled. Being a father and a husband brought out the best in him. They enjoyed spending quality time doing outdoor activities such as ATV rides, camping, biking, motorcycling and anything with high adventure. Prior to his death, Victor was thrilled to hear the news that Chelsea is expecting another addition to their beautiful family in the spring of 2015.

He is survived by his parents, Brent and Almedis Mueller of Idaho Falls; his sisters, Jana and Brianna Mueller; grandparents, Everett and Janice Mueller of Rigby; grandpa, Victor Rodriguez of Venezuela; wife, Chelsea Jensen of Idaho Falls; Chelsea's son, Creek Jensen; and daughter, Nekella Faith Mueller.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Reina Patino Rodriguez of Venezuela.

Victor Brendon Mueller will forever hold a special place near our hearts and the many hearts that he has touched. We are excited for the birth of his unborn child to have a piece of him returned with us. We are blessed to have our guardian angel watching over and protecting his family and loved ones.
