Victor was born in Elyria, December 13, 1910, to Rudolph Mathias and Louise (nee Hunkley) Weisman. Victor was a lifelong resident of Elyria and graduated from Elyria High.

A builder of working steam and gas model engines, he showed them for over 30 years at the LaGrange Engine Shows. He built many models long after his retirement. Victor and his wife, Lucy, traveled to every State in the U. S. during their life. Victor was a free thinker and lived a long, active and productive life. He was a wonderful father and will be sadly missed.
