I knew Vincent in St Louis, he being a colleague at St. Louis University, and he was always friendly and uplifting. Sorry to hear of his passing. Steven Brenner

I remember Vincent well from Star of the Sea grammar school as well as Saint John's Prep, where he was a classmate of my brother, Dan. I also remember him as a fellow altar boy. He seemed always caring and gentle. My one very specific memory of Vincent is the closing line of his valedictory speech at St. John's Prep in 1967. He said: "We have a universe to explore and a lifetime to explore it in." I find it inspiring sixty- five years later. My sincere condolences to all his family and friends. Bill (Walsh) Rogalski

We only get one valadictorian and he was ours of the St. Johns Class of 1967. While never close, I admired just how plane smart he was...not sure if he ever got a B and it was no surprise he was scooped up by Harvard. Later it made total sense this man with a documented superior brain and intellect would go on to study and practice care and treatment of epilepsey. So sorry for the family and for the loss...the world is better for Vincent's life and work. May perpetual light shine upon him, Jack Kareckas, '67
