Vince was born October 27, 1999. He grew up in Munster where he played baseball in Munster Little League and football in Munster Pop Warner. Vince went to Munster High School where he played football and hockey. He moved to Fort Lauderdale, FL in 2021 where he lived with his friend Jack. Vince was getting ready to move back home to Munster this month to be close to family and friends again. He had found a career he enjoyed as an elevator mechanic for Local 71 in Miami and was transferring to work in Chicago. He was looking forward to settling down and starting a family of his own someday. Vince was always looking out for everyone else and was a fierce protector, especially of his siblings. He was a loyal friend, the life of the party and the glue that stuck them all together. Vince had wonderful life-long friends that were more like family. His favorite day of the year was the Fourth of July and he loved celebrating that day with a huge party seemed to get bigger and have more fireworks every single year. He just wanted everyone to have a great time because that made him happy. He was so handsome, incredibly generous, hilarious, hard-working, family oriented, healthy and strong. And he had the best laugh that was so contagious. Vince was a Chicago White Sox and Bears fan, and had recently gone to an IU football game with his brother where he instantly became a fan. He also loved U of Miami. Vince loved being outdoors, going fishing and golfing, going to the beach, sports, being active, playing with his dog, and hanging out with his friends. He really lived life in the moment and enjoyed every day to the fullest.
