Robert “Vic” Yountz, born in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, passed away on April 17, 2026, at the age of 81. Born on October 15, 1944, Vic was a devoted husband and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Vic passed away suddenly after a brief but difficult battle with pneumonia, following a longer and courageous 8 year fight with ALS. Despite the challenges the illness brought, Vic faced each day with strength. Even as his condition progressed, he showed resilience with his quiet courage. In his final days, he was surrounded by support with his beloved wife by his side. Vic went to the lord at 4:45 am on April 17th while holding his wife Pam’s hand. He is now finally at peace and in a better place.
Vic is survived by his wife of 55 years Pam. Loving brother and brother in law to Bernie and Doris Yountz and Margaret Goodwin. Uncle to Michael Yountz, Christine (Jeremy) Winchester, Pamela Goodwin (deceased), and David Goodwin.
Vic was predeceased by his parents Gerry and Vic Yountz, as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins.
Vic will always be lovingly remembered by his family and friends.
The family will receive their friends at the Egan Funeral Home, 203 Queen St. S., Bolton (905-857-2213) on Thursday, April 23rd from one o’clock until time of funeral service in the chapel at 2 o’clock.
If desired, memorial donations to the ALS Society would be appreciated.

We are sad to hear of the passing of Vic Yountz, a friend, a colleague, and a great brother in law to his wife Pam’s family. We had many adventures together and he was always there when help was needed for the many building projects the family started. Vic will be dearly missed by his many friends and family members. A donation to the ALS Society has been made in his name. God Bless.
