I took over Vic's position at Hoechst Celanese when he retired. He was a good and patient teacher, and I appreciated his quiet manner and offbeat sense of humor. It was good knowing you, Vic.

When I first met Vic he said that Robin and I would have many happy memories together with God in our lives. I replied that we had already started then. We always departed with a I love you.
