Vic Carrillo, Jr.: a good guy

By G. Romero Wendorf
 
Like everyone who knew him, I’m going to miss Vic Carrillo Jr., who passed away last Tuesday at the relatively young age of 55. His presence made the world a better place, and for that he will be missed by family and friends alike.
 
I ran across him some when I lived here in the 1980s, but it was after my family and I had moved to Austin in ’90 and returned in ’93 that I got to know him better. Salt of the earth, as they used to say. Hard worker. Stand-up guy. Handshake was his word. And he always had that half smile on his face as if he had the world figured out. And I think he did.
