Vic was my best friend and a beloved member here and on 2cool. He did much of the work rebuilding the camp. We lost him during your long hiatus Henry, March 25th 2 years ago.
I don't have any good pics of him on this new computer, but I got a nice one here of him throwing a cast net from the old BR's community board.
I tried to post the excellent youtube video 2112 did for his funeral, but the videos don't exist anymore and Bert has been MIA for a while.
