Hey, Vinnie,
It's just Stacy's Mom and that time of year again. Yep, another Christmas without you and Stacy Boy.
I know your Mom's heart hurts as much as mine does everytime we realize you are not able to spend the Holidays or any other day with us anymore.
But, we take comfort in knowing you are both together in the great scheme of things and God had bigger plans for you both.
We just want you to know how much we love and miss you and think of you constantly.
Please give each other hugs from us and watch over us through the year because we need that extra guidance to help us through the grief of losing you both at such a young age.
Until next time.....
With Love, Hugs, & Tears,
Stacy's Mom, Jane

I remember you lying on the floor when you were the tiniest baby I'd ever seen. And your freckle-faced, curly headed toddler self amusing Grandpa Tom. We gave you & Christopher shirts for Christmas, and you didn't even complain that they weren't toys instead. And you ate your broccoli. What an amazing kid. I pray your mama's heart can heal a little bit over time, but she'll always miss you. Your father was proud of you too, and your son is adorable.
Love, Aunt Martine

Vincent, I actually wrote this on the 28th, but you know your mom and technology! So I am writing it again. I want to let you know I have heard from Seamus and Arin recently, lots of people have been in touch with me to see how we are doing. Anyway, Vincent you left us too suddenly a year ago. I didn't believe that life could go on without you, but here I am still kicking around. YOU were a wonderful son, father, brother and "sister." (your speech at Chris's wedding. Your friends, family and everyone else you came into contact with on this earth will always have a huge piece of you in their hearts. I know you were with me and watching over me this past year. You helped me pick out a dog, Liam, at the pound. Now can you help me get him housebroken? You let me know in a dream that you were hanging out with my dad. Your words have frequently caused me to jump up and do some housework. Most recently with your uncanny culinary skills helped me to make the best eclairs ever. Did you see us in IHOP when I took Eden and Nickie for dinner? The song, "Brick House" came on and little Nickie jumped out of his seat and did an impromptu rock-out! Facial expressions and all! He is definitely his daddy's boy. Our Eden is tall and gorgeous and smarter than ever..
I miss you, we all do. You taught us a lot about life, not only how to enjoy it, but more importantly that we should never take tomorrow for granted, and that you can never tell the people you love, how much you love them too often.
I know you are keeping them in stitches in your new home, but my door is always open to you sweetie. Love, A&F Mom

Hi Vinnie,
I, like everyone else cannot believe you have been gone from this earth for a whole year already. I replayed the last time I saw you on the evening of December 26th and that you were getting ready to make dinner for your kids and your mom. I always saw nothing but happiness when you spent time with your children. I truly believe you know how much we all miss you and continue to love you. Until we see you again, rest in peace and pray for all of us.
Love,
Terry

Dear Vinnie,
it seems like only yesterday that you and Chris were giving me a hard time and telling me that I better take care of your cousin. I still remember the last time we got to see each other. We were downtown drinking IPAs and celebrating being together and enjoying our last night in AZ. I will always remember you as a great friend and an even better father. Today and everyday we miss you bro.

Vinnie,
I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I cannot believe it's been a year since you left us and went to Heaven. Our recent visits to Tucson have been fun, but we are really missing you being there and all the fun and laughter you would bring. Please continue to watch over us. We love you and miss you everyday.
December 27, 2013
It was a year ago today that we went to IHOP. Nicky and Eden were telling me about their Christmaas presents and what they had done. Your face was beaming when Eden told you about her grades and plans for the future. Nicky was excited about spending the weekend shooting cans. Vincent I am so glad that I got to take you to Tucson Boys Choir, our visit to Sonic for lime ades afterward. We all have a lot of happy memories of our times together. I miss you my Vinny Boy. Love Grandma Mary
Stacy's Mom, Jane
December 11, 2013
Hey Vinnie:
This is Stacy's Mom checking in on the two of you. I know you and Stacy are probably having a good time together misbehaving on a regular basis and that Heaven has never been the same since the two of you have arrived there.
I miss my Stacy every day the way I know that your Mom misses you, Vinnie, but if you both had to go so young, I am happy that the two of you are together. It makes my heart smile when I think about that.
The Holidays are especially difficult around here as I know they are for your Mom because you left so soon after Christmas last year. They are difficult for us because it was Stacy's favorite time of year along with it being Football Season to top it all off. I'm sure he has inundated you with all of the Pittsburgh Steelers stats, as he knows them by heart. But, you can tell him for me, that as much as I love the Steelers, they are not doing so great this year. He needs to send some loud vibes down here to them to get them off their butts.
I have a request of you, Vinnie. Please give my son a big hug for us and keep one for yourself. The two of you will never know how much everyone here misses the both of you. So, take care of each other until we all meet again.
We will be lighting candles for you and Stacy at Christmas this year and looking to the Heavens to see a couple of extra bright stars up there knowing that those stars belong to the two of you smiling down at us.
With Love, Hugs & Tears,
Sally O'Connor

Hey Vinnie,
It still hurts to think about not being able to see you anymore, knowing you have passed away. Writing this I have to admit it true.
This is the Vinnie I knew...A little curly haired boy that liked to dance and shake his fanny; a boy with an angel's voice when he sang; a boy that loved to play basketball, even taking on his Uncle John and dad; a cousin our girls looked forward to seeing when visiting, bringing friends to show off their family in Tucson; a giver of crazy Christmas; a father that adored his kids, tender hearted but tough, this is the Vinnie I remember, that I miss.
We all miss you.
May your soul rest in peace.

I met Vinnie last September. I only learned today of his death. Vinnie, you were funny, sweet, and kind. I'm glad I knew you for the short time I did. My heart hurts over your family's loss. You spoke of your son so often, and loved him so. You're with God now, Vinnie. Love, Sarah

It has been a month since my Vinnie has passed away - a month! I cannot believe that anymore than I can believe he is dead. To me Vinnie will always be so full of life. He was a smoker and drinker but he always had energy to spare. I feel so very grateful that God gave me this time over the past two years to have Vinnie living with me. We had some long talks and heated discussions and we loved eachother so much. Vinnie was a lot of things but the thing he was proudest of was being a good father. And he was that, he and Nicky enjoyed every minute they spent together.
I want to thank everyone for all of your kind words, prayers and friendship. Vinnie had a lot of good friends and a lot of people who just thought the world of him. If Vinnie loved you, you felt protected and blessed. Thank you from our family for the part you played in Vincent's life. Please don't forget who he was to you, keep his memory alive by living every moment like it was your last. That is, cherish your time here and love your friends, relatives and especially your children like Vinnie did. Sincerely,
Kayla McGlory

Dearest Holly:
I never got to meet Vinnie. But my son, Stacy spoke of him quite often during the time he worked at the Treasurer's office with you and Terry. It seemed that Stacy and Vinnie had a lot in common even though Vinnie was a few years younger.
I have to believe that they are together once again and Heaven will never be the same. We have to smile when we think of that.
We will miss them forever and our hearts will always ache but we can keep them alive and close through the many joyful memories they left us.
Please remember that, "No amount of time nor space can ever separate our hearts." We will love them forever.
God Bless you, Holly.

To ALL of Vinnie's family,
My heart breaks with the passing of our dear Vinnie. I feel privileged to have been a part of your family since he was about 5 years old. I saw him grow up to become a wonderful son, grandson, brother,uncle, cousin, my "nephew" and an especially wonderful father, something he loved being. I will pray that everyone finds comfort in knowing he is at peace and will continue to watch over his family. It was obvious how much he loved all of you and may you find strength in that always.
Rest in peace Vinnie!
Love, Terry

Vinnie, we knew each other since the first grade. I have so many fond memories of all of the good times that we had together. You are like a brother to me and I can't believe you are gone. You had every virtue that a friend could ask for I knew you always had my back and I hope you know I always had yours. You had a positive outlook on life that always made me laugh. You will never be forgotten. I hope you will be available so when my time comes, you can show me around when I get there. I love you man. Peace.

Vinnie, I Watched You Grown Up Into A Man From A Fresh Faced 4th Grader At Brichta. You Were Such A Sweetheart & That Didn't Change As We Got Older. My Heart Pains When I Think About Not Seeing Your Welcoming Grin & Giving You A Hug Hello Again. You Are Missed Dearly & Always Will Be. Our Crew Will Never Be The Same, May You Always Be There To Guide & Protect Us. We Might Not Have Had A Life Time Together, But The Time We Did Have; We Packed In A Lot Of Living & Memories. Thank You, Vinnie. Spread Those Wings...Fly, Man. We Love you.

Vinnie, You were such a fun, outgoing, free spirit. Last visit to Tucson was one for the books. Stacy and I had so much fun and always tell our friends about the night we spent on the town. I was so looking forward to seeing you next month, but I know you are looking over all of us and protecting us like you always have. I am going to miss you Vinnie.
