Very Sad.. Very Sad.. I have thought about him.. Knowing one year was drawing near..
I brought that info Over Tom..
The following info was sent to me by Victor's cousin Orlando and i believe it has been posted by Luna Sea on another site...
Those of you who have been around here for at least a year, know that last April 10th (2008) we lost one hell of a Capt / Fisherman / Good friend / just an all around good guy, at the young age of 23..... Vic was fun to be around and NEVER pulled any punches..... What a tremendous loss for the fishing community...... I think about him often and will NEVER forget him....
On Saturday May 16th Victors family is making one last push to raise some money to establish a memorial in his name.... the money i believe will be used to put his ashes to rest out in the Atlantic which was the only place he wanted to be both day and night (his True Love)......I believe this will be either through reef balls or some kind of reef sinking........
Well I along with others will be attending so if anyone is looking for a night out with Good food and dancing amoungst friends and for a good cause for a great person and family, please contact Victors cousin and or sister who's emails are listed below...... Thanx for reading..... And Continued Rest in Peace Junito..
