I am sending my deepest condolences to Victors family. I was one of Victors care managers at Elmwood, and I had the greatest privilege of getting to know him. He really could brighten ones day. All he ever talked about was his wife and how he couldnt wait to see her again one day. I hope you are having the time of your life up there Vic , See you later alligator, after while crocodile.

Cara and I offer our sincerest condolences on the passing of uncle Victor. I have many fond memories of uncle Vic, especially the times he came to the farm to help Dad work on building projects. Vic would do the engineering and do the lay outs on the rafters, then Dad could copy the pattern and build the rest.
May he rest in peace.

I loved to visit Uncle Vic and Aunt Mary Ann and all my cousins in Minster. I noticed and admired how well my (mostly) older cousins obeyed and were respectful to the requests of their parents. We played outside in the beautiful yard during the long summer days when we visited, and also ran around the farm. I appreciated how Uncle Vic took my brother Kevin under his wing and hired him during one college summer and taught him many construction trades. I loved listening to Uncle Vic's stories of the things that happened on the farm when they were young. His strong presence was and will continue to be felt by the whole family.

Always enjoyed our conversations at McDonald's, Victor was very community minded, was instrumental in Earl's Island Pavilion, not only designed it but did much of the labor in building it. He was very knowledgeable. If you talked to him, you came out smarter than when you entered conversation.

My sympathies to the Baumer family. I was always impressed that at sporting events the young and old would stop to say hello to Victor and share a story or a joke with him. Rest in peace, Vic.

Please accept our very deepest sympathy. Uncle Victor was such a neat person - I remember when Larry told him we were engaged and Uncle Victor called me and said, "What are you trying to do to me?" He will be missed for sure but he is now back with Maryann, his favorite person. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
