Why Victoria?

Victoria Coffee is named in honor of Colby's grandmother, Victoria Chrusciel, a 95-year-old Holocaust survivor. Victoria fought tirelessly to come to the United States with her husband, Walter Chrusciel, and started her family. She is a remarkable mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She continues serving as one of the most independent, selfless, and kind hearted women in the world. She walks 5 miles a day and enjoys gardening. Colby, along with many others, have been inspired by Victoria to always be grateful for what you have, work hard, and be kind to everyone.
