Mr. Joseph Edward Victor
August 17, 1939 — January 7, 2017
Victor, Joseph Edward, “Joe” age 77, passed away at home surrounded by family after a short battle with cancer on January 7, 2017.
Joe was born in Milwaukee on August 17, 1939 to Edmund and Margaret (nee. Dietz) Victor. On August 31, 1963 he married the love of his life, Barbara Weber. He worked construction, drove truck, and worked for his good friend Alvin Hegemann. In the mid 60’s he went to work for Pabst Brewery in Milwaukee and then to Anheuser Busch for a total of 37 years in the business, retiring as a Brewing Superintendent in Ft. Collins, CO in 2000. Upon retiring, Joe and Barb lived in Tucson, AZ where Joe golfed and worked as a ranger on the golf course. They recently moved to Minocqua, WI where he enjoyed fishing, mowing with his John Deere and tinkering in his garage. Joe will be sadly missed by all who knew him, especially his seven grandchildren who were blessed by his wisdom, humor and love.
He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Barbara; sons: Gregory (Mary), Jeffrey (Tamara), Michael (Nancy); his grandchildren: Joseph (Annalyse), James, Tina, Jacob, Justin, Austin, Hannah, and great-granddaughter Ellanore. He is further survived by his brothers and sisters: Margaret (John) Kester, Susan (Tom) Lord, Edmund-Ned (Linda), Adrienne (Larry) Ping and Thomas (Pat), along with many cousins, nieces, nephews, family and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother-in-law Tom Lord, and sister-in-law Linda Weber.
A Celebration of Joe’s Life will be held on Saturday April 8, 2017 at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church, 305 South First Street, Waterford WI 53185. A Memorial gathering and visitation in Church from 9-11 AM, with Mass starting at 11:00 AM.
