Uncle Vic,
It's gets easier to type with percocets, hell I take 3 a day and 2 oxycontin, the pain just gets dulled a little. As you once said this board is a bunch of highly opinionated guys that have there own opinions on just about everything. You have to stick around for a while, I need some expert legal advice on how to go after the company that made the 3 defective knee implants that I've been dealing with for years. Also youv'e got to perfect the grobeck power system before you go.

Goodbye old friend

Vic,
So sad to here the news. I want to thank you for all the advice I have gained from you over the years. Even though we never met in person your tips, advice and wisdom have helped me. I feel like you are a friend of many years. I am sure the man above must need some good cooking and a few tips for his 31 too. God Bless you

Uncle Vic....
This is the fourth time I have sat down to try to write something.. each time as I started my eyes got so teary I just couldn't type.
First.. I want to thank you for all the help, suggestions and recipes you have provided for all of us here. They are a fine legacy!
Second.. Please accept that while we have never met, I consider you a friend.
Third.. Your post above shows all of us that you are one class act!
And last.. When I was a kid I was friendly with an old guy, sort of a hermit.. who lived a couple of miles away from our house way up a dirt road, back in the woods.. He told me lots of things about how to grow up to be a man. One thing he told me...
"When you die you will have been a fortunate man if you can count your good friends on one hand"
At last count I am the one hundredth and fourth to post on this string. Enough said!
I wish you, your loving bride, and your family peace!
Uncle Vic

Havent been on the site for a while and heard about UV this morning. Just finished reading this whole thread and I think it's all been said and It's all true. I didn't realize he was still fighting this. Just 2 weks ago he helped me with a problem on my Cummings. I think I have 5 UVI shirts hangin in the closet and will never get rid of them because of what they mean to me,
This is a great loss. Glad to have known you.

"You live, you die, but have you ever fished the UVI", and thanks to him some of us have...and he and it has changed our lives forever.
