Vic Devries

I was saddened to hear of Vic's death. I always knew he was selfless in helping others who needed a hand, but I found this out personally.

At a crucial time in my life Vic was there to help me without any hesitation and with a cheerful nature he helped me not once but twice, going out of his way and spending many hours of his day to do this for me.

You'll be sorrily missed Vic and may the Ottawa Senators finally make you proud.

Marie Kennedy

Our sincerest condolences on the passing of Vic. He was lucky to have you in his life over the past couple of decades. Your never-ending support during his cancer treatment and periods of convalescence and palliative care were essential to his well-being and happiness.

Although few, the occasions that we spent with Vic were joyful and celebratory. Not only did he welcome us into his home, but also into his heart.

Vic will be missed by all who knew him and loved him. May he rest in peace free of pain and suffering.
