I worked in the law office with Vic and Barb for 15+ years and remained friends with them for another 10+ years. I´ve never met a more dedicated man - to his wife, children, grandchildren, family, co-workers and his church. He loved life and enjoyed every moment in and out of the office. What a blessing he was to my life.

I had the honor and pleasure of practicing law with Vic for 18 years. He was an outstanding, skilled lawyer, and an even finer human being. His life was centered around faith, family, and fishing! Patte and I are proud to call Vic and Barb our friends.

I'm sorry to hear about Vic's passing. We were classmates and friends for four years at St. Xavier in Louisville. At some class reunions, we talked about some of the unique criminal defendants we represented. I always thought that Vic was a very cool guy. God Bless him!

He was the best grandpa anyone could ask for. Forever grateful for all the memories and laughs we got to make together. I'll never forget all the fishing trips, long drives in the van to Florida, bowling (you falling on the alley lol), introducing the movie O'Brother where are tho, sleepovers, homemade biscuits, cutting down Christmas trees, dancing with tiny hands, and singing the "skrrt" part of "don't touch my truck". I love you forever. Hope you can catch all the fish you want up there in heaven❤
