Vic was personally responsible for saving lives during the Great Barn Fire in Terrace in 1974. He warned others in a trailer inside the old Army Hangar, to leave the building.
What makes this more amazing, is he suffered thru a bad fire when he was younger, and bore the scars from it till he died. He was a big man, with a big heart.
He was also a ping pong player extraordinaire, which I can personally vouch for! We miss you Vic!
