We are very sorry for your’s and the families lost. Victor to the Prochera family was always huge and only needed Perogies for any help. He was a great help to my dad and Stella. He will be rewarded for his time on earth.
We had lots of great rides with Victor and friends in the North Saskatchewan River Valley. The endurance community also enjoyed adventures & time with him when he competed.
Lots of love to all who knew Victor. Thanks to the medical staff who gave great care to him during his medical struggles.

Many years have passed since then, but Victor always took the time to call and see how my Mom was doing bringing her much joy and laughter with his phone calls.
We are sending are heartfelt condolences to you Larysa and to the Novakowski family.
