Ah, s***. This has knocked me sideways. Vic was a genuinely nice, super-smart fella and I am gutted at his passing.
We first chatted on Koptalk and swapped a few messages because we both grew up in Dovecot. It was through him that I heard of this site. We then caught up and had a lovely night chatting over a few beers when he visited Melbourne. I always looked out for his posts in this place because he always talked sense and helped me along with my thinking.
Farewell, Vic. Rest in peace, la.
