Thinking of Vince makes me smile. He is synonymous with some of my fondest memories of my high school and college years and even later. He was handsome, kind, hilarious, a little dangerous and cared a lot about people. I recall at one of our early high school reunions his pride when he spoke about kids! He lit up talking about them, and even later when he was living in harder times. For me, Vince is part of the fabric of my growing up. I am sad he is gone. He holds a bright spot in my heart.
