My thoughts and prayers are with you Denise and Jessica. I have known Vince since his Jefferson days when his smiling face we would see every day. Time went by and our paths were separated but I always saw him around town. I was excited when I found out he was my softball coach for a Women's League in 2002. All my years of playing ball, it was him who took the time to teach me what I was doing wrong with my swing. I will miss you so very much and to Denise and Jessica, I am here for you.

I can say that "my heart is grieving upon learning of his passing...", but Vince would give me that "look" that would turn my sadness into a smile. He made my years at Cigna fun; he was my friend, protector and tor-MENTOR. He was generous with his time and talent and deep within, after peeling off layers of gruff and rough, there's a really nice, sincere and super-caring guy. Lynn is right, Vince was one of the good guys. I am blessed having known him; I can see his smile and hear his response now, but I'll keep this clean and not mention his favorite curse words, in Italian, of course!

Denise, Jessica and Aunt Lucille, I am so sorry for your loss, and thank you for sharing this wonderful man with those of us who appreciated his infectious passion for life. He will be missed!

With Vince, what you saw was what you got: someone who never met a stranger, a gruff exterior masking a heart of gold, someone who could always make you laugh (even when it was at the expense of this Southerner), someone who was genuine. He will be missed. My best to the family I never met but that was. clearly, always in Vince's heart.

April 8, 2010

My thoughts and prayers are with those he loved the most, Denise, Jessica and his family. Vince always had a smile on his face, a joke or two to tell and always time for a hello. I am glad to have known Vince and will surely miss him.

So many wonderful and hysterical moments at Cigna... Vince helped make my first job out of college an eternally memorable experience - he taught me so much!! I still have the italian horn he gave me and Cory after his swimming 'accident'.. it holds even more precious to me now!!!
God bless Jessica and Denise - hold true to your memories... Vince was one of the good guys!!!

I'm an old Jefferson friend of Vince's and feel honored to have known him. He was a class act, and a good-hearted gentleman. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
