Victor Fred Bartels was born April 30, 1916 in Tobias, Nebraska the son of Herman W. and Marie (Schweer) Bartels. On May 21, 1916, Vic was baptized at the Zion Lutheran Church in Tobias where he was later confirmed on April 13, 1930. Growing up, he attended school at Zion Lutheran in Tobias.

Vic loved farming. In December of 1969, he retired from farming and moved to Storm Lake. After they moved to Storm Lake, he became a jack of all trades working at Wunder Tire, Bomgaars Supply, John Deere, Storm Lake Tank and Silo, Klein Electric, Torch Chemical and also Norm's Livestock and Supply.

Three men that influenced Vic the most throughout his life were his father-in-law, John Lullmann, who impressed the importance of religion and O.J. Grau and Louis Madision, who taught him the basics of economics; however, Vic often mentioned that without God nothing would have worked.
