Vic was preceded in death by his daughter Angela, of Nephi; and by his younger brother, Vaughn, of Salt Lake City. Vic wanted to be a truck driver all of his life, which he was, until forced to retire due to failing health.

Following his earlier life with his family in Wyoming and Idaho, Vic was graduated from Cottonwood High School in 1974, and served in the United States Coast Guard until receiving a medical discharge in 1975.

Vic was born on April 20, 1955 in Laramie, WY, and loved Tennessee Ernie Ford's songs and singing.

Vic's earthly body was cremated and his ashes now reside with his children.
