Prezada Lily e demais familiares, Ainda estou chocado com a noticia que acabo de ler. Esperava apenas mandar mais um abraço brasileiro para o Victor. Victor foi um bom amigo que fiz durante trabalhos de engenharia no aeroporto de Brasília alguns anos atrás, com quem aprendi muitas coisas. Sinto muito, sinceramente. Esteja paz. - Posted by: José Augusto Degrazia Campedelli (Pessoal e profissional) on: Mar 24, 2021
