Memories and Condolences
for Vincent Olney
August 19, 2013
Dear family of Vince Olney,
Vince owned and worked the land and barns adjacent to our home when we were growing up. He was always kind and tolerant of us. He would sometimes stop his work and help us (once he disciplined my pony when I wasn't being tough enough with him). But mostly he was just there, a kind presence, never interfering and always with a kind glance or a smile. It was always reassuring when we would hear his tractor fire up and know that Vince was out there. I am sorry for your loss and am grateful for having known Vince. From the Benzoni family (Maria Benzoni Lombardo)

Olney family:
Although I'm sure you miss Vince, I trust he went well. I recall him as a person who wanted work done right (even if he didn't turn off the combine while working on it...) and tolerated us climbing on his grain piles.

Deepest sympathy in the loss of such a wonderful man. Vince has been a part of my life since birth I remember watching working the fields next to where I lived and his letting me ride with him on the tractors. Vince was more than a friend he was a member of our family, Vince will always be remembered.

To the Olney Family...I am so sorry to hear of Vince's death. He was a wonderful man who always had a kind word. As kids he used to take us up to the farm and let us ride the tractors, etc. I have great memories of him and your mother. They always made us feel like family. Sheila (Swan) Taylor
