Vincent C. Cancro

Vince was a special person and a thread running through my life. We puzzled over Victorian poetry in college, ran a number of long distance races, shared family vacations, and even parallel careers in teaching . He always brought a big smile, a dogged spirit, and a stylish sweater to the party. On the day before he died, he mentioned to me that he missed the gym. Pure Vince. He would not go "gentle into that good night." To the end he persevered and strove to live life to the fullest. I'm proud to have known him for so many years and will cherish always his memory.

Mr. Cancro taught me at W.C in 1981 and I have nothing but fond memories of him and his classroom. God bless Cancro the family

Mr. Cancro was my English teacher during high school 1990-1994 and so much more. I remember him fondly when I reflect on those years. His kindness, generosity and the way he cared for the students positively impacted my life even still to this today. With deepest sympathy to his family, I pray for peace and comfort during this time.

Loved working with Vince. Tried very hard to work with him with his English classes and my social studies classes. Always a good laugh and story to tell.
