We are so sorry for the loss of Vincent. We're praying for Gods peace for your family at this very sad and difficult time.

Thinking of Vincent makes me remember high school care free days and lots of laughter. He had that cheeky, little grin which told you he had the 'upper hand', especially when playing cards. My dad always said Vincent was a very good substitute for Ray in a game of Buckpitch!

He has now completed his Earthly mission and graduated to a higher calling.
My sincere condolences to his family for their loss.

Healing hugs

What can I say that hasn't been gracefully said already about my dear friend, Vincent?He made me laugh like no other, his passion for life unmatched by no other, and his love for family and friends nonpareil like no other! He was enclothed with the blessing of making new friends, nothing ever angered him and nothing mattered more than his dear family. He exuded the principles of Jesus, walked in the vastitude that there's more in the afterlife that we could ever imagine!His laugh will forever humble me in grief but, I hope he knew I loved him dearly like my brother, for he was nulli secundus! My prayers to his Family, bless you all!

I'll always remember our card games, usually played at his Uncle Earl's house. To quote Vincent when somebody busted out; The saddest words known to man: Deal around me. Here's hoping he's already found a game in Heaven. R.I.P.
