Hi & I remember Vince (aka Junior) best when he & Helen would be visiting at Eli's farm when my sister Karen & I were young...I think Eli used to drive his tractor to Lafferty too. (Eli was the brother of John Mistovich & was always joking around.) I also remember when Vince & Helen would be at various venues dancing, along with my Uncle John & Aunt Grace. Vince appeared to be a good dancer too. I am glad for the opportunity of knowing him & he was always nice to me & Karen when we visited his & Helen's house in Lafferty when we were young. These are the memories of Vince I remember most while living in Barnesville.

So sorry for your loss. I remember when we would all gather at my Uncle Eli's farm for various occasions and he was always joking around with everyone. May God provide comfort to your hearts and know that he is in the best place there is.. Heaven.
