Corney and Family,
We were so sorry to learn of Vince's passing. Although it has been some years since I left the post office, I still remember the interaction among all the rural carriers. We had good times and the picnic was always fun.
You'll have your special memories of the good times with Vince as well. I'm sure they were many.
We will be unable to attend either the visitation or services but you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
John and Sue Goodale

Corney & Family,
My fondest memory of Vince is his showing me how to drive a stick shift after my brother had yelled for half an hour. Vince quietly took me out and I came back grinning and DRIVING. He was always a quiet strength and was always there for our familly. My Mom was always happy to see him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you always. He will be missed.
The Gillespie Familly
