Bob Taylor, Don Schade and I were very sorry to hear that Vince is gone We tried to reach him over the past few years but we're never able to get through. We had great times in our teens and twenties out Falcon Lake and at the fifth night in Winnipeg. He was a unique guy who likes talking, laughing. He'll remain in our memories - Posted by: Jim Berglund (Friend) on: Mar 21, 2014
