Faye
When I was a kid running around with Jeff, Vince and Bob always made me feel welcome. Although I wasn't part of their business nor a a country club member, they embraced me as a friend. I was always and remain grateful for that. Vince will always be remembered as one of the really good guys in my life.
I am so sorry for your loss.
