Obituary for Victor John Defeo

Victor John Defeo, age 75, of Wynnewood, PA died on March 5, 2023. 

He is survived by his wife Diane, siblings David Defeo (Deborah) and Margaret Curtis (David) and his brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Douglas and Wanda Wasson. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, great- nieces and great-nephews, all of whom live in Canada.

He recently retired from The Wharton School, The University of Pennsylvania, Accounting Department.  Outside of his family, his two loves were teaching and golfing. Even though he lived in the States since 1975, he remained a proud Canadian who never gave up his citizenship but chose to be a permanent resident (Green Card). He so appreciated our adopted American family, consisting of many neighbors, co-workers and Philadelphia Zoo docent friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
