Victor Harold Gustin

Victor was known for his dedication and hard work throughout his life. He retired as a programmer foreman in the roll shop at Armco Steel and worked at Lowe's Home Improvement, as well as in the mail room at the IRS. Victor was also an avid motorcyclist, riding with the Hi-Way Dressers of Kansas City.

His personal interests were golfing, woodworking, boating, playing board games, dominoes, camping, and golf carting. In the community, he would lend a hand to anyone needing assistance in repairing or customizing household items, cars, and motorcycles. He would measure, review, and precisely cut, with no error.

In case you forgot “Turn off the water, turn off the light, In or Out, shut the door…” LOL

Victor is preceded in death by his beloved wife of 62 years, Jeane, his daughter Cheri Pasquarette, his sister Betty Lou, and his parents Harold and Elizabeth (Colin) Gustin, as well as his brothers-in-law Bobby Dean Thorpe and Robert “Bob Bob” Kinman.

He is survived by two sons, Patrick(Kim) and Troy Gustin(Michelle). Victor's legacy continues through his six grandchildren, Shawn, Kaitlynn, Austin, Jennifer, Owen, and Kyle, and four great-grandchildren, William, Weston, Cooper, and Liam, who is expected in March. He is also survived by his brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law Jim and Vicki Thorpe and Joan and Ron Sandstrom, and his sisters-in-law Lenore Kinman, Debbie Nichols, and Maria Thorpe.
