I know the pain of losing both parents so close together and am so sorry my niece and nephews have to feel this pain. I wish I could be there with you four through this painful honor and good bye to your father...Vic was an incredible brother in law to me with his silly jokes and sharing his life experiences as well as the love and pride of his children and my sister, Carol! You'll be terribly missed by me however leaving me with awesome memories!

So sorry to hear about Victor. I will not be able to come to the funeral because of a prior commitment I can not change but wanted to express my sympathies to the family.
I grew up idolizing all of the Untouchables and wanted to be like them. I had the good fortune to work directly with Vic at the nickel plant's Bar and Wire Mill when I was a coop student. He was a great guy, a good worker and lots of fun to be around. I would then see him from time to time over the years and always was very encouraging to me as I was trying to make my way.
Vic will definitely be missed. He is the second of the untouchable players to pass. I like to think that he is having a conversation with Coach and my brother and Eddie is telling them both a story of something that happened back in the day.
Wishing the family God's peace.
