July 29, 2007 -- Rudy, Sue, Millie, and Victor. Victor Penner is of Mennonite descent. His grandfather, Peter J. Penner, was a highly respected teacher and preacher in the Chortitza area and beyond. Victor has lived his life in the Ukraine, is married to a Ukrainian woman, and appears to have the advantage of knowing the Mennonite story from the inside out! He is a flurry of information, insight, viewpoint and opinion which he renders in a way that would match the finest history educators. He is passionate but he is composed.
