I will always remember my Uncle Victor of a man of sincere curiosity with an honest interest in people. He listened before he spoke, I can see him leaning in with a smile at the Hurdle-Stubbs family reunion. And, yes, he was a man of the next new gadget. My condolences to my Aunt Charlotte, and my cousins Aaron and Tory.
Charlotte and family, So sorry for your loss! Victor was my seat-mate at the Welfare Office; the best one I ever had. He spoke about his family often and lovingly. He was a shopper and collector extraordinaire! If you ever needed anything, like a bandaid, Tylenol, or a piece of candy, all you needed to do was stop by Victor’s desk! He was gentle, kind, and compassionate, as well as fun to be around. I will miss him!
Charlotte, I was saddened to see That Victor passed on. We shared so many happy times together at Met-Ed. Victor will be missed by all those who knew him.
Sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with your Family.
Victor was a fun and caring guy. We lived collecting a beanie babies and shopping on Black Friday. We teased each other about the Eagles and the Cowboys. I will always remember when he came with Tory to see me at a new job. He always showed interest in things there important to you. He will be greatly missed
