Age 75

Victor was born Jan 24, 1949 in Fort Worth, Texas. He attended and graduated high school at St. John’s Northwestern Military Academy in Wisconsin. He briefly returned to Texas to attend college, but moved back to Wisconsin to marry Judith Wagner (Lee), whom he had met while attending St John’s.

They had one son, Christopher Lee. There they owned and operated a small homemade candle store.

Like many other young people of his generation they were inspired by the Summer of Love. They embraced the hippie counterculture and relocated the family to San Jose in 1974. He spent the majority of the next 30 years working and living in and around the San Francisco Bay Area, at one point living on the waterfront in Alameda.

In 2006 he made the move to retire to Eureka. In 2015 Victor remarried Linda Robb, but sadly was widowed in 2020. At the time of his passing, he was a resident of The Lodge in Eureka, where he had several friends in the community. .

Victor was an avid reader his entire life, and enjoyed spiritual books and thought provoking sci-fi. He was an avid 49ers fan, and he loved the views of Humboldt County redwoods and the California coast.

Sadly, on April 22, 2024 Victor lost his long battle with pulmonary fibrosis. Ayers Family Cremation prepared him for his final wishes — to have his ashes scattered at sea in the Pacific Ocean he loved. He will be missed.
