Vina's,

I am very sorry to hear about "Coach Vina." He meant so much to so many people. Such a positive roll model for everyone he came into contact with. I have very fond memories of him...standing on the mound...giving me a little smile just before he threw a pitch. Still puts a smile on my face today. He will be missed and will always remain in my thoughts and prayers...
