Born in Reading, he was the son of Douglas Baro, of Lower Alsace, and Mary Baro, of Exeter.
Vinnie was a 2005 graduate of Antietam High School and a proud member of their 2004 State Championship Soccer Team. He went on to Villanova University and graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering; it was there that he made some of his closest friends.
After graduation, Vince became a Research Assistant at the University of Delaware, where he researched orthopedic bioengineering and was able to publish some of his findings. He then stepped into the role of Application Consultant for Brainlab, where he supported and managed neurosurgery technology throughout hospitals in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Vince most recently worked as a Land Title Researcher for William C. Brown and Co.
He was an avid reader, showed great interest in antique art prints and had a passion for music.
In addition to his parents, Vinnie is survived by his siblings: Nicholas and wife, Maureen Baro, of Boston, Mass.; Melissa Baro, of Mt. Penn; and Rebecca Baro, of Exeter; by grandparents, Elaine Baro, of Reading, and John Ludzia, of Pittson.

To the Baro Family,
We want to express our sincere condolences. We got to know Vincent when he was our son Andrew's roommate at Villanova. We thought highly of Vincent and were glad they were able to spend three years as roommates and continued their friendship after graduation. You will be in our prayers and we will always remember Vincent fondly.

Doug, Mary, Grandparents, Friends ...
Doug, I'm sure you don't remember me as the last time I saw you was at your Mother's home right after your Father's passing. I had a great appreciation for your parents and your Mother and I had some wonderful times together. Years ago, I was married to Eugene Pachuilo and we had a Daughter, Karen Lynn ( Pachuilo ) Kuser. Karen passed away last April 19 down at Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia, Age 53. My Husband and I lived in Philly for three and a half months with the hope that she could have a transplant and come home once again. That did not happen, she got an infection and was gone in 12 hours. My heart goes out to you and your family. There isn't a day goes by that Karen isn't in my thoughts and at age 81, it should of been me. I have been out of the Pachuilo family for almost 45 Years but I just had to send you my condolences as I can truly share in your sorrow at the loss of your Son, Vincent. God Bless You All!
Please give your Mother Elaine my regards ... she is a wonderful person.
