I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I hadn't seen Vince for a few years. He was a good friend. I met Vince and Butch at the Swiss Buda, we used to play darts and sit and talk together. He will be missed by all who knew him.

We met Vince through my cousin Butch Salvatore. The first time we met him was in Colorado, and then many times at 'crab feeds'. Butch and Vince were 'good buddies'. Butch passed away just a little over a year ago. My sympathies to all, but especially Laura. Be strong. Rita and Regan Campbell
