When I read Vinny's obituary and an article written about him, I realize how beautiful an individual he was. We served together on the Hebron Republican Town Committee, and his family and I are members of the Worship Center in Hebron. Just a year ago, when the coronavirus hit, I was petrified to leave my house, as I am over seventy, and have diabetes, which makes me more vulnerable to the virus. The Worship Center asked if I needed help. As I sell items on eBay, I wondered how I was going to get my packages to the post office, and conveyed this concern to them. They indicated that a volunteer would come by to pick up the packages for me. Who came? Vinny! They say if you want something done, give it to a busy person. With all the obligations that Vinny had, somehow he was able to find time to help me in my hour of need. For this, I am eternally grateful. May God bless his loving family in this trying of times. -Robert Warner, Gilead.

My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Vincent Jr. Having worked for his father, Vincent Sr, back in the late 70's, I knew the Colonna family when Vincent Jr and his siblings were just youngsters. So tragic for him to be called home at such a young age. May your faith bring you peace and comfort.
