Vic was born in North Bay on August 8, 1956.

He is married to Patty (Kelly), another North Bay native.

His parents, Hub and Lena, still live in North Bay. His brother Peter and his wife Elizabeth also make North Bay their home. His sister Teresa and her family live in Montreal.

After 5 years at Scollard Hall, Vic attended Conestoga College in Kitchener, worked at an advertising agency in London, and moved home in 1978 to open his own wildly-successful company, Fedeli Advertising.
