Terry and I are so grateful to have been able to see Uncle Vic on Christmas Eve. He fought such a valiant battle - may he now rest in peace. Gail, Elizabeth, Louisa, Lena - you are angels in our eyes and I know that Uncle Vic adored all of you and appreciated everything you did for him. May you also be at peace and hold tight to the wonderful memories he leaves with you. All our love.

Our family will always remember Vic for his great stories, love of sports,quick wit and sense of humour and his wonderful ability to bounce back after a crisis. We have so many memories of our two families growing up together and sharing years of holidays, dinners, games, boat trips, cottage visits, ski adventures ... we all had so much fun. We look at this picture of you Vic and we can hear your contagious laugh. May you rest in peace. Our deepest sympathies to Gail, Elizabeth and little Victor, Louisa, Rob, Sawyer, and Hazel, Lena, Steve and Isabella and to all of Vic's extended family.

Victor will always hold a special place in my heart. From the early Carousel years, to the later ones, and even after I left, the Carousel gang was always family. Vic was always kind and caring, and brought the human side to our business. He spoke about family and our recent reunion, I am so very happy to have had the chance to visit with him then. Bless you sweet Victor and rest in peace. My condolences to Gail and the family left behind.

To the family of Victor Louis Palermo

While words fail to capture the pain of losing your loved one, we look forward to the time when words will fail to capture the joy of having our Heavenly Father return your dear one to you. We can take comfort in the scripture: Revelation 21:4 where God promises a time where we will no longer have to deal with pain or death. May you find comfort in knowing you loved one is safe in the memory of God.
