Daisy, my heart breaks for you and your family. You have been in my thoughts and prayers for many months however we cannot question God. However please put your faith in Him and as the Bible says, " He will never leave you nor forsake you". Please rely on this and He will surely help comfort you and your family. Although I don't know if I ever met Vince I know he was so special. God needed another special angel to help out in heaven. May you be comforted by the wonderful memories and your beautiful children. If there is anything we can do please don't hesitate to call I wish I could do something to help you through this time. All our love to you and the family. Love, Frankie & Pat Shiflett

I worked with Vincent at Verizon about 4 years ago and my husband and I were also lucky enough to get one of the black lab puppies from he and Daisy. I spoke with Vincent about 8 months ago. He said he was thinking of the dogs and thought he would give me a call. I myself had just completed chemotherapy for breast cancer. When he learned of my illness he became very emotional and shared with me that his mother had died from breast cancer. I will never forget how compassionate and caring Vincent was, he will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to Daisy, children and family.

Someone has said that Vincent was a special man... and it is so true. He and his family have been in my life for a long time and my heart breaks that he had to be taken so early in his life. There are not enough words to express the loss of his life so early. May God keep each of you in His arms and give you comfort. My prayers and love are with Daisy, the children, Spencer and Kay, and April and her family.
Love, Sue Coiner

Vincent Crute was a special man. He truly loved his wife Daisy and their children. He did not have a mean bone in his body and loved spending his life with his family and having his children's friends and his friend's around him. He was the best poker partner I ever had. He will be truly missed. The world just lost a good person.
All my love to Daisy and the kids. Love, Jo
