Obituary

Age 65, passed away in the early hours of March 21st at his home in Portage, Michigan. Born in Kankakee and raised in Bradley, Illinois, Vic graduated from Bishop McNamara High School in 1971. After high school, Vic earned an associate’s degree in Marketing and, in later years, separate associate’s degrees in accounting and business. An aficionado of all thing musical, as a child he earned ribbons for playing the accordion, and later he played guitar with friends in a “garage band.” He loved the Blues, and late 60’s and early 70’s rock (especially Pink Floyd). He often reminisced about the great music he heard on WXRT when he lived in the Chicago area and loathed anything resembling disco or rap music. In the early 1980’s, he moved to Bradenton, Florida, where he eventually met and married his wife of 25 years, Margaret “Peggy” (Wilson) Boucher, who survives. Vic worked for many years at Armstrong, and among other places, Agoggle and Insulator Seal in Sarasota, Florida, and DMJM Aviation and ASI Building Products in Fort Myers, Florida. Vic was preceded in death by his parents, Bernard R. and Jane (Goff) Boucher. Along with his wife Peg, he is survived by his sister, Anita R. Boucher of Sarasota, Florida, and his brother-in-law William B. Wilson of Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Victor was my best friend growing up and through school. We used to play in his sandbox a lot. We were music buddies – I remember listening to Sergeant Peppers and the Beatles White Album with him as soon as they were released. We both felt the same way about politics and music – I will miss him a lot. Thanks, Victor, for all that you gave!

So glad I got to know you, even a little bit. Your kind, gentle spirit and good humor were evident from the start, even as you were enduring significant physical challenges. No more suffering or pain, and no doubt your various “canine kids” were right there to greet you! Praying for Peg and other loved ones you left behind.

While Vic often sat on the front porch, he enjoyed the company of our kids. He would occasionally even challenge them to a game of cribbage. Kindhearted with a good sense of humor,we will miss our good friend and neighbor. Revelation 21:4
