I am so sorry to hear of Vinnie's passing. I have very fond memories of the summers in Halifax and all the fun I had with Jackie and your great family. It was Vinnie's hard work and dedication to his family that made that possible and I was certainly a recipient of his generosity. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.
