Vincent married Kathryn Mary Doocy on November 9, 1948 in Ledyard, IA. Their witnesses were Georgia and Carlyle. She passed away on their 67th wedding anniversary. Vincent was a jack of all trades, master of many, self taught at all of them. He was a very honest, admirable, and intelligent man. Vince never forgot a name or a date. His mind never left him. Everyone will remember his firm handshake and his deep belly laugh. He is our very unique antique.

He was a lifelong member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion, and the Albert Lea Moose Lodge in which he was extremely dedicated. He spent many hours fixing and remodeling the lodge. Most of all he enjoyed spending time with family and friends. He could always find someone he knew.
