Victor "Vic" Wayne Shives

Victor “Vic” Wayne Shives, 77, of Salisbury passed away on Tuesday, March 1, 2022 at Novant Health Rowan Medical Center.

Born in Rowan County on June 6, 1944, he was the son of the late Lillie Beatrice Garwood and Johnie McKenzie Shives.

Mr. Shives was a 1963 graduate of Boyden High School and worked as a supervisor of shipping and receiving at National Starch and Chemical in Salisbury.

He never met a stranger. He is loved by so many and will be remembered and missed by all who knew him.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers, Richard and Barry Shives.
