- A celebration of life service will be held for Victor Harnack at 2:00pm, Friday April 20, 2018 at the. irst United Methodist Church, 219 E 4th St, Bloomington. All who knew or were touched by him are invited.
Victor was born July 29, 1927 in Milan, Italy where his mother, Joy, was studying music with her then-husband. When he was three, he and his mother moved back to Manly, Iowa where she was from and where Victor grew up. Joy taught voice and piano most of her life and Victor followed in her footsteps. Joy remarried H. “Bob” Harnack who adopted Victor.
In 1946 Victor served in the Navy and sung in the Blue Jacket Choir. He met his wife, Martha, at a USO in Waukegan, Illinois where the choir was performing. They married in 1948 and were together for the next 62 years until Martha’s death in 2010. They led a rich and exceptional life together, filled with music, theater, teaching, community service, travel, and family. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother Spencer Harnack.
Victor taught communication at the Universities of Colorado at Boulder (10 years), and Illinois at Chicago (31 years). In 1996, Victor and Martha retired to Bloomington building their dream home tucked into the hardwood forest. The combination of a college town, IU’s world class performing arts, and the beautiful surroundings were a perfect fit for them.
Surviving Victor are his sons and daughters-in-law, Doug and Patricia, and Hal and Gaylee Harnack, sister and her husband, Merry and Larry Hulse, granddaughters Alexandra, Lindsey, and Morgan (Webb), as well as many other extended family members. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Spenser Harnack.
