Vic was born in Winnipeg on May 22, 1923. He was predeceased by his mother and stepfather. Vic joined the Navy at an early age and served on the HMCS Cowichan as a mine sweeper, and escorted convoys across the ocean during the Second World War. After the Navy, he worked at various jobs and ended up with the City of Winnipeg as foreman of boulevards until he retired.
