Dear Family of Victor Bang, Sr.

Some years ago I worked with Victor and Virginia at the Mesa Family History Center. They were sweet, wonderful people! Victor had a nice smile and always called me "Sister" with no surname added. He had a pleasant way of saying that. Virginia was always happy and pleasant to work with as well. I will miss both of them.

I have a good picture I took of the two of them and would like to share it with your family. Will you please contact me at 480 966-7520?

I love your family and appreciate
knowing your wonderful parents and
grandparents!

Love, Margaret Christiansen

Dear Family:

Vic was a truly remarkable man. He was always upbeat and smiling, even in the face of adversity. You would always walk away from him feeling better about yourself and about life. Vic and his beautiful wife, Virginia, will be dearly missed. We extend to the Bang family our deepest sympathies for two lives that will be always remembered. Until we meet again!
