With a heavy heart I am not saying goodbye but see you when my time comes. I met you in high school and we had pet names as friends. Later we went to ASC/ASU where you met the love of your life and my sister/friend. We became a family. Endure hard times, sad times but the great times always outweigh whatever we went through. Now I have to miss you and Linda. I still remember our last conversation of when we were going to try to see each and talk about old times. Well now you have your wings. Thank you for accepting me as a sister and a friend. Your Sister Dru
My deepest & heartfelt memory. I met Vic bck in 1978, I would later be standing up with him & my beloved cousin Linda, as they married each other. Our lives had us living in different cities but I would often stop in too see He & Linda. Linda was like my sister,so Vic became like my brother. Although Linda passed many yrs ago, Our love for extended family would keep our paths crossing from time too time. If I didn't see Vic, he was making his way over 2 hug me & we would spend a few moments catching up & reminiscing about our ASU shenanigans & we always ending our visit with a laugh & a hug. I give my deepest sympathy too all who know him because too know Vic is to care about Vic because he was a dear person. May God provide strength & warmth to his daughter, Bre & his entire family & friends. No more pain, No more strife...You lived a good Life! Love...Sand

I remember Vic contagious laughter and the way Vic brought joy everywhere he went. Vic had a one-of-a-kind spirit that touched the lives of so many people. Vic will be deeply missed, but the impact Vic made on our lives and the world will forever remain. Vic was [YES, WE CAN] before, it was a campaign slogan.
Hush dear friends, don't say a word. Our classmate is gone and free like a bird. Free to fly in the heavens above, As a friend we'll always be thinking of. He is gone from where we can see, But in our hearts is where he'll always be. Memories can never be taken away, So we'll remember him when we learn and play. Sadness, anger, and wondering why? Are feelings that will make us cry.
But, our dear friend will help us grieve. Because his spirit will never leave.
Please know that you are not alone. Please take comfort in the loving memories you shared with Vic, as they will forever serve as a source of strength and joy.
