Vinny was the sole owner and contractor of Custom Floors Installations where he was able to show his phenomenal talents with his own designs of hardwood floors/cabinetry which he put to use building and designing his own floors and furniture. In his spare time, Vinny had a passion and talent for bowling, where he bowled several 300 games, playing pool, baseball, and tending to his garden of fruit trees, vegetables, and plants. When he had time off, he loved to go down to his condo in West Palm Beach, Florida, and just kick back and take a relaxing swim on the beach. Vinny had a way of always making people laugh and feel at ease, the minute he walked into a room. He also had a serious side and if you needed advice or help you knew you could go to him without hesitation. He was a wonderful, kindhearted, thoughtful, and caring man. He will be missed deeply and greatly, leaving a hole in his entire family as well as all of his friends. He will be loved always and forever.
