Dear Carolyn and Family,
Please accept our deepest sympathy in the loss of your dear loved one. We were so sad to hear of Vic's passing. He was such a wonderful neighbor and friend to us. We will miss seeing and visiting with him, and very thankful we saw you both not long ago. When we think of Vic, we shall always remember him in his orange cap with a big smile, his friendship and his generousity. Our Morgan Hill neighborhood will certainly miss him, as he was loved by all who knew him.

Vic's passing is a huge loss to the community and the farmers' market. I have had the privilege to know Vic and his family for over 40 years and and it has always been an enjoyment to socialize with him and his family and crew. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Molinari family, our condolences, the Ed Beyeler family

I'm very sorry to hear of the passing of this wonderful man. I'm 51 years old and my father would bring me to the Farmers Market almost every Saturday when I was young. I have fond memories of the both of them speaking Italian to each other as my father would purchase a weeks worth of vegetables. Though my Father passed on years ago I would still visit the Farmers Market on occasion especially in August when Vic would save two cases of his best Roma tomatoes for me to take home to Mamma for sauce.

I will miss visiting him and seeing his warm smile on Saturdays. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

My Condolences
