My condolences to Bev and Patty. I know that you will miss him very much. Victor was an amazing man who was full of wonder and compassion. He was the Grandfather I never had and the best dancer I have ever known. I will keep a special place in my heart for him always. I loved him very much and he will always be missed.

I wish grandpa wouldn't of left us this early. We had a lot of good memories with him. Like he was my boom buddy. We went to go to see a first stage performance. We got a boom part. It was so fun. Also he was a baby hog. I have had a lot of great memories with him. When we go on vaction we always pick something out for him. This last vaction we got him a hat that said "All American Grandpa". I will never forget him and all the friends I have made at HCCC. But now he's up is heaven and he is now healed. No more struggling for life. I just want to keep my Grandma, Mom, Dad, Matt, and angel grandpa in my heart forever.

We extend our deepest sympathy to Bev, Patty, Kevin, Matthew and Jenna. From the time we moved to Lilac Lane in 1967 to now, Vic was always a very special neighbor and friend. In the fall of 1975 he was the one who told us about a co-worker whose Golden Retriever had puppies ready to be adopted. Caramel became part of our family and was with us for almost 15 years. We are blessed to have known Vic and to have called him our friend.

We want to express our condolences to Bev, Patty, Kevin, Matthew and Jenna - we were fortunate to spend a lot of time with Vic - his daughter, Patty, married our son, Kevin- so we were able to share being grandparents to Matthew and Jenna with them. We live in Arizona now, but every summer we would come back to Wisconsin, and enjoyed so many good times together. Vic and Bev also visited us in Arizona. He was a very special person - our son was very blessed to have a father-in-law like Vic, and we were blessed to have Patty as our daughter-in-law, who is special to us - and have Bev as a special friend.
