Victor Thomas Stockton

Victor Thomas Stockton, affectionately known as "Tom", was born on January 27, 1942, in
Neosho, Missouri. He passed away on March 20, 2024, in Twin Falls, Idaho, at the age of 82.
Tom lived a fulfilling life dedicated to hard work and creating cherished memories with his loved
ones.

Tom led a remarkable career working on the Pipeline, spending weeks to months in Prudhoe
Bay, Alaska. Despite the demanding nature of his job, he always made time for his family. One
of his most treasured memories was flying his children; Brenda, Laurie, and Sonny up to Alaska
during the summers when school was out.

Outside of work, Victor had a passion for the outdoors. He enjoyed camping, fishing, hunting,
and traveling - truly embracing life to its fullest. His generosity knew no bounds; he was always
willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

Among his proudest accomplishments was becoming a respected “badass” ironworker—a
testament to his strong work ethic and determination.

Victor Stockton is preceded in death by his mother Lorraine Bates, father Victor Thomas
Stockton Sr., brother Richard Stockton, ex-wife Penny (Richardson) Stockton, son Victor
Thomas Stockton III (Sonny), and grandson Devan Thomas Stockton. He is survived by his ex-
wife and lifelong friend Theresa Martindale; daughters Brenda Denise Lively and Laurie Ann
Kronyak; grandchildren Angela Marie, Tiffany Michelle, Ashley Elizabeth, Victoria Jean, Justin
Thomas, Kye, Ariah, and Jace; as well as 15 great-grandchildren. His presence will be greatly
missed by many nieces and nephews who adored their "Uncle Tom."

A Memorial Service to honor and celebrate the life of Victor Thomas Stockton ("Tom") will be
held on May 17th at Wilks Magic Valley Funeral Home in Twin Falls starting at 1:00 PM.

In every memory shared and every life touched by Victor Thomas Stockton, his legacy of
kindness and love will continue to live on. He will forever be remembered as a cool dude who
brought joy wherever he went. Rest in peace Tom - you will be missed dearly but never
forgotten.
