Victor Ernest Purcell

I was a 17 year old kid, my first "real" job at Airweld in Glenwood, and I worked on the back dock with Vic, who treated me great and encouraged me when I inevitably messed up. I remember when my older brother said "He's a good kid, he's really smart", Vic said " yeah, well,smart guys blow up too!". He kept me in line and was kind the whole time.

I will never forget you
