So sorry to hear of Victor's passing. I grew up with Victor in Deer Park. Spent many hours with him building mini bikes or picking up coal off the railroad tracks for his homemade blast furnace, and yes he taught me to ride a unicycle. Even though it's been 40 years
he's still my friend.
July 20, 2012
Your memory we treasure
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure.
Happy Birthday
