Vince was born Dec. 8, 1933, in Pueblo. He retired as a mail carrier for the US Postal Service where he met many lifelong friends at work and on his mail route. Vince had a great sense of humor and loved teasing people – young and old. His family is going to miss their Sunday lunches and watching war movies with him. He was proud to have served in the US Army under the 1st Calvary Division.

I have known Vince for many years because his sister, Jeanne, was and is a very good and dear friend of mine. My recollections of Vince are that he was always one decent young man and an older person as time went on still maintained his decency. I never heard him talk ill of anyone or make fun of anyone no matter what they looked like or how they were dressed. Yes, also he did have his great sense of humor and was a teaser but nothing bad.
He was very respectful of all and I really can’t say anything but good about him. Maybe this stems from him attending Catholic schools and being taught the right way and of course by his wonderful mother and dad. My sincere condolences and sympathy to all of his family and I send my love
I remember Mr. Gentile fondly when I was friends with one of his girls. Always had a joke or a snarl for me. Rest in peace my friend. Dang that was over 40 years ago.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
