passing. Services for Vic will be Thursday, July 10 at Sutton
Funeral Home in Taylorville. Visitation is from 6:00-7:00 p.m.

"I am Vic Roberts, an old retired coal miner
and I am a Green Party candidate for Congress
in the Illinois
19th district. While campaigning
for public office,
I wear my coal miner's hat as a
symbol of the everyday way of life of the laboring
class people.
My every thought, my every action
has
been shaped and molded by laboring class
people; this is who I am, this is what I am.
To be
sure, if elected to Congress, I, Vic Roberts, can
and will best represent the interests of the
laboring class people because I am one too."
