Victor was a veteran of 23 years. When Victor joined the Navy, the slogan was “join the Navy and see the world” and he did. He visited all 50 states and many other countries. When he was on leave, he would put a map on the wall, throw a dart at the map and go visit wherever the dart landed with his camera. He enjoyed golfing and watching the Boston Red Sox. He also loved to play Keno and scratching scratch tickets. He loved telling stories about all the places he traveled to. Thailand was his favorite place that he traveled to, he loved the people and food there.
A memorial service will be held at the Massachusetts National Cemetery, Connery Avenue, Bourne, MA 02532 on November 16, 2026, at 12:30pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Veteran’s Services or to VA Hospice care.
