He met and married Edna in 1939 and lived on the farm for their 62 years of marriage. The centre of Vic's life was his strong faith in God, his family and friends and his farming. Throughout his life, Vic enjoyed bowling, scrabble, playing games, gardening and fishing. He regularly attended St. James Gospel Chapel every week and cherished the friends he made in that community, as well as his Bible study friends in Woodlands. Vic always had a way with words; he had a great sense of humour, was a great story-teller and enjoyed his visits with his many friends and family members. His example of faith will continue to live on in all who knew him. Friends may call to pay their respects on Sunday, March 15 at 7:00 p.m. at MacKenzie Funeral Chapel, Stonewall.
