I will miss Victor. I had the pleasure of working with him for 10 plus years. He was not only my mentor, friend, drinking buddy, and sales associate but a father figure who I loved dearly. He could tell a story like no one I have ever come across! We had many good times and I learned a great deal from him. His legacy will certainly go on and on. My upmost sincere condolences go out to his entire family. He will be greatly missed. Pete Kaha

Beverley, Jim, Diane, Steve and the entire family: I am so saddened by your loss. My fondest memory of Victor is that every time our paths crossed he was always laughing or had a smile on his face (from ear to ear), and so it was last year when our paths last crossed.
My heart is with you.

To Victor’s entire family:
Vic had an incredible zest for all the good things in life. He was a compassionate man with a wide range of interests and knowledge. He was certainly the best raconteur I have ever known. His enthusiasm and positive attitude was contagious.
As the third generation leader of Accurate Machine & Tool, he displayed a consistent commitment to do everything he could to ensure the company continued to grow and prosper. With both employees and Customers he demonstrated a warm, caring, personal relationship. He was an excellent listener, always willing to engage one and all in discussions on how to ensure AMT’s ongoing success.
Please accept my sincere condolences. Victor will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

The few times I had the privilege of dining w/Victor he was always such a gentlemen & genuine. He would make sure to talk specifically & personally to each and every person. Since my husband retired one of the things I have missed each Dec was getting to talk to Victor & hear of his latest cruise. Praying for family & friends during this great time of sorrow.

Victor had been my Boss, but he was also my Friend, and a friend to my Family. He cared about us.
Likewise he was not only employer to the extended “Accurate Machine & Tool Family” he was also their friend, and as his health declined, his concern for all those who worked for him increased. Like a Father worrying about what will happen to his Children when he was gone.
Victor we all love you,and will never stop thinking about your kindness and thoughtfulness and of course those wonderful stories that you love to tell.
Accurate Machine & Tool will be a different place without You,
On behalf of my wife and family. I extend to my deepest condolences to Victor’s entire Family.
