Not sure what to say?

I knew Vince in the late `60´s to middle `70´s. I loved him very much. My heart aches knowing he has been gone for almost nine years.

I am so sorry to learn of the passing of Vince. I was a member of the Soul Seeker band and will miss him dearly. We had a chance to visit a short while ago and fondly remembered the the time we spent together in the band. My condolences to his family.

Ron Lew - miss you Vince

I am sadden of the passing of Vince. Wonderful memories of our SJHS days. I was the first to hire him and his band for a Dance Night in Palo Alto, CA. "Sagura Gardens. Great singer...great in everything he does...dancer. But I remember most of all - so talented playing basketball. We'll all miss him. Our deepest condolences. A wonderful person !!!


Wth deepest sympathy,Anne Gregory (class of 1963)

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Please accept my deepest condolences to my dear sweet friend and classmate Vincent. He will be deeply missed as he was loved by many. I enjoyed his kindness and friendship. Amazing basketball play and a gift of singing with a beautiful voice. I never saw him be unkind to anyone or anyone unkind to him. In high school he always had a sweet smile and a sparkle in his eyes for the girls. What a great dancer as well. We all had memorable times at San Jose High School, class of 1962 that included...

I not only remember Vince as an excellent basketball player at SJHS (he was class of '62), but I remember his lovely singing voice. He was such an outgoing and friendly person. I last saw him at his Aunt Lois's service. He still had his wonderful smile & we reminisced about SJHS back in the day. Heartfelt condolences to his family.
