Vince was probably the most godly example of a Christian man that I have ever known. He was filled with wisdom & always pointed every conversation towards Jesus. He wandered this earth with one ear continually tuned to hear the trumpet announcing Jesus´ return! I appreciated everything he did for my husband when he was very sick. I know Vince left a great legacy in a wonderful family who walks closely with the Lord because of Vince´s love of his Savior. Heaven is rejoicing at Vince´s homecoming right now!
