Victor passed away at the Villa Forum long-term care home on Sunday, April 12, 2020, due to complications from the Covid-19 virus. He was 85. Beloved husband of Lolita. A gentle and generous father to Adriana (Brent), Anthony (Denise) and Amy (Rick). Much loved Nonno to Sean, Alec, Marie, William and Liliana.

Victor came to Canada in 1954 when he was 19. With nothing but a cardboard suitcase, a few dollars and a heart full of hope and ambition. He learned English, embraced being Canadian and worked extremely hard to build a life and family from scratch.

He loved his work and was counted on day in and day out. He prided himself on never asking any of his employees to do something that he wouldn’t step up and do himself.
He was smart, logical, always thinking calmly and clearly. Especially when it had to do with math, mechanics and physics. He helped us win more science fairs than you can imagine.
His morning espresso was a sacred ritual. The more cookies he dunked into it, the better.
He could fix or build anything. When he did, it was guaranteed to last a hundred more years.
There wasn’t a bread, cheese or salami that the man didn’t devour with gusto.
He had a great sense of humour. Loved to talk and laugh and could strike up a conversation with anyone, anywhere.
His religion was a cornerstone and he followed his faith to the best of his ability.
He was kind, loving, patient and treated everyone with equal respect.
