Team Klock Werks Sets Up Memorial Fund for Vic Briggs

Team Klock Werks sadly reported that it recently lost one of its own: Vic Briggs, 29, died Thursday, June 30, 2011, from injuries he sustained in a car accident on Wednesday, June 29 on his way home from work. Vic is survived by his four small children: Brooke, Brittany, Brandi and Brycen.

Vic touched the lives of all at Klock Werks, and many of you who knew him. He was the voice of Klock Werks, always the first one to pick up the phone, and one of the friendly faces you may have met at an event, the company said.

In lieu of flowers, Klock Werks asks that you please donate to Vic’s children. Klock Werks has set up an account at Home Federal Bank (Mitchell, SD) in memory of Vic to go to his children.

Vic was an organ donor so he will live on in memories as well as through others. The Team at Klock Werks encourages riders to check the "donor" box on your driver’s license application or renewal.

If you would like to make a memorial donation, please send it to:

Attn: Vic Briggs Memorial
