Dr. Vic's Memorial Service and Celebration of Life Tribute by Kurt R. Schaarschmidt, D.C. - August 13, 2009 I've known Dr. Vic for 45 years, and he is the single most important mentor in the shaping of my successful life. At age 14, I became his chiropractic patient. After Dr. Vic helped my father with migraine headaches, and my mom with chronic knee pain, my dad asked him if chiropractic could help eczema, which I had all of my childhood. After taking a series of adjustments, chiropractic also helped my eczema. Dr. Vic believed that chiropractic could help a multitude of non-spinal conditions with a chiropractic adjustment, and it worked for me and for countless other patients as well. You see, Dr. Vic was much much more than just a doctor, he was truly a healer. I stayed as a maintenance patient, and then my father died suddenly, at the age of 59, of a heart attack. I was 21 at the time, and I needed some answers. Having been his patient for seven years, I knew Dr. Vic had something I wanted, I just did not yet know what it was. One day, while in for an adjustment, I asked Dr. Vic about my father's sudden passing, and he said I needed to come to one of his lectures. I went, and this was the start of a lifelong quest for knowledge. That evening, he and his wife, Gwen, gave an information lecture on a philosophy of life called Concept-Therapy, which taught about healing the whole person, body, mind and spirit. Shortly, thereafter, I took the course. It was the most wonderful correlation of science, combined with the wisdom of the ages, and I am still studying it. One thing you have to say about Dr. Vic was that he was a promoter. He believed in Concept-Therapy and Chiropractic wholeheartedly and he wasn't afraid to tell anyone that you need this knowledge. Not only did he live Concept-Therapy, but by his words and example, he could disseminate and sell his ideas and concepts to lots of other people, as well. Talk about a promoter, to the best of my knowledge, he sent over 50 young men and women to chiropractic college. That's almost unheard of. I was one of these 50, and I never looked back. During school and afterwards, he was always there to help us understand more about life and practicing chiropractic. He could also really promote Concept-Therapy. He and Gwen had large classes, brought many new students to the Concept-Therapy movement, and he and Gwen, and later Drs. Jack and Jackie Masche, traveled all over North America teaching these seminars. Yes, he was a promoter, and he could promote what was important to him, like only a handful of others could. Dr. Butch and I were roommates at Palmer College of Chiropractic, and we came home on certain weekends and would talk with Vic and Gwen. They had the most wonderful marriage, relationship, and workable philosophy of life.
