I am so sorry to hear this news. Vincent was a student of mind at Morehouse College. I taught him in the Business Department. He was a very good student and our friendship continued after I left and he graduated! I always appreciated seeing his photos and seeing him on occasions!

Vincent was one of the kindest people that I've ever met. He always had a wonderful smile and positive word; no matter what the circumstance. I pray his family finds strength in knowing that he left a lasting legacy. My deepest condolences to his loved ones.

Deacon Vincent M Bursey was a gracious acquaintance when I arrive at Ebenezer Baptist Church in 1996. I thank him for spending time with me and my children, always checking on the children while they were in college. Thanks for the memories

I send my most sincere condolences to Vincent's family. Vince and I were Morehouse classmates. He was the epitome of a Morehouse Man. He always carried himself in stately manner. I will forever remember him and how he looked forward to taking pictures of our classmates. May you rest in paradise.

True forever,

To God be the glory. I met Vincent freshman orientation week. He was an upper class man and offering guidance to the incoming freshmen. Vincent always presented himself with kindness. He will be missed. May the peace of God be with the family.
