He was a member of St. Brendan’s Catholic Church and an Honorary Life Member of The Knights of Columbus. Vince loved auto racing, classic cars, spending time with his family, his cats, helping people, and watching “Gold Rush.” One of the biggest things on his bucket list was to own another 1966 GTO. He searched for many years to find one like he had in New York in his twenties. He accomplished that goal for his 80 th birthday last year. His Red 1966 GTO was his dream and will be taken care of by his children.
In June of 1977 Vince along with Linda Daddio, the mother of his 4 children and lifelong friend, decided to move from West Islip New York to little ole Stephenville Texas. He was determined to have a better life for his family. He built a lot of homes and commercial properties in Stephenville and surrounding communities. He was very passionate about his work in construction for over 50 years. He along with his Son James invented and patented EZ Vent-N-Closure, a metal roof venting system. His family is very proud of all he accomplished in his field.
