"It is with a heavy heart that we report the loss of BHS 65 classmate, Bob Victoreen, who passed away this morning at St. Joe's following a short illness. We remember Bob as a sweet guy with a warm smile who played varsity football and was in A Capella at BHS. Bob was a defense attorney in Burbank for many years. He was preceded in death by his wife, Suzanne Decker Victoreen (BHS 69), who passed away just two (2) years ago on 11/30/19. He is survived by daughters, Sara and Rachel, their spouses and five (5) grandchildren."
Link to Suzanne's notice.
RIP Bob and Suzanne.

I found out just a few days back that Bob was struggling. I am devastated. Bob, Paul Hacker, John Lowrey, Dennis Price, and a few others including the late Travis Bean[Cliff], and Blackwood too, had many adventures together in our youth. Underage drinking of beer, going to the San Fernando Drags, the fun Zone in Newport Beach-bumper cars, The Rose Parade, and just getting in minor trouble all the time. But we had the teenage time that kids ought have and it was a blast. I have missed Bob's friendly jabs over the years and became separated from his life for a long time. Yet it does not change my grief for losing him. He was just pure fun to be around. One thing I recall off hand was how he scared the ___ out of me when he drove me in his Cobra. Holy___ I do not think the wheels were on the ground on that ride. He was a good friend and a very smart and clever person and he loved his family with all his heart.
