Vincent loved to fish, his dream came true on his boat on a lake in the Poconos where he lived. He enjoyed betting on horse racing, spent hours doing his odds for races. He loved animals and had deer on his property that he fed along with birds and squirrels.

Vincent was very charismatic. People were always drawn to him. He loved telling stories, jokes, and a little magic too. He would light up any room he walked in with a smile on his face. His love for family and friends was very strong and deep- he will always be remembered for his warmth, his kind, and his beautiful personality. He will be missed by all that knew him. We will keep him in our hearts forever.
