In 1994 Victor moved to Greensboro NC, where he lived for several years. He joined Reid Memorial CME Church and was a faithful member of the male chorus and served on the kitchen committee.

Whether Victor was in Pollocksville, NJ, Greensboro, or Asheville he never met a stranger. Although he was not the oldest child, he always took the role of protecting and caring for his mother and his siblings. He would take odd jobs even at an early age to assure that his mom had gifts for birthdays Christmas and pretty much any holiday that came around. Wherever he found himself he would also design cards and send to his mom and other family members for birthdays and other celebrations. Victor was known as a master chef whether it was in the kitchen or on the grill. He was an Artist, A songwriter and a Singer. He had a catalogue of poetry and songs, so many that many of the songs he never got around to performing. Everyone especially enjoyed his spirit filled songs as he was worship leader in several churches that he was a member of. When Victor was a little boy he actually told his mom that he wanted to drive a truck when he would see them pass him by on Highway 58 in Pollocksville. After some adversities in Victor’s life. He felt as though doors was closing and Victor was begin to feel discouraged and felt that he was in the final chapter of his life. God opened a whole new chapter and gave him yet another testimony. It was at that time that God reminded him of his desire to driver a tractor trailer all those many years ago in Pollocksville. God not only opened up the door for him to become a tractor trailer driver God also blessed him to be a father again. Victor had great faith and “no matter what,” he always gave God the praise! Even in the midst of the storms of life, Victor Always gave God the Praise!
