So sorry for your loss. Victor worked the better part of his career with my father, Jack Hutte. Dad would always tell me he was one of his best workers, along side of Shorty. Victor was always 1st in line to help dad with projects at my house. I always enjoyed visiting the jobs and talking to Victor. He was a very good man!
