Father Victor Humbert Wrobleski was born on March 19, 1903 in Lemont, Illinois and was baptized on March 22 in Lemont's Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church. His early schooling took place at St. Pius V Grammar School and Quigley Preparatory Seminary in Chicago.

Upon completion of studies at Providence College in 1925, he made his novitiate and first profession at St. Rose Priory, Springfield, Kentucky. Following philosophical and theological studies at River Forest, Illinois, Somerset, Ohio, and Washington, D.C., he was ordained in St. Dominic's Church in Washington on May 20, 1932.

In the early fall of 1933, Father Wrobleski was sent on a special assignment to Lithuania to join the newly formed mission band from St. Joseph's Province. He worked as a

preacher-missionary throughout Lithuania until war broke out in 1939.

After his return to the United States, he joined the new Province of St. Albert the Great and was assigned to St. Pius in Chicago. From 1940 until 1942 he served at Mater Dolorosa in Independence, Louisiana, and St. Helena in Amite, Louisiana. In 1943 he returned to St. Pius until 1945 when he was assigned to Holy Name Parish in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1949 he served as chaplain and religion instructor at Benedictine Heights College in Guthrie, Oklahoma until the following year when he was named the first Dominican pastor and superior at Sacred Heart Church in Mangum, Oklahoma.

In 1954 Father Wrobleski was assigned as assistant pastor to St. Joseph's Church in Ponchatoula, Louisiana and served there until 1963 when he began a five-year assignment at St. Dominic's Church in New Orleans. In 1968 he returned to his native parish, St. Pius in Chicago, where he worked until late 1972 when serious illness forced him to retire to Heritage Manor Convalescent Home in Dubuque, Iowa. He died there of a heart attack on January 28, 1973. Following services at St. Pius Church in Chicago, he was buried at All Saints Cemetery in Des Plaines, Illinois.
