It was an honor for me to call Vince my friend. He was a wonderful gentleman who always encouraged my ownership of Executive Air Transport and supported aviation as only he could.Thank you for helping make my aviation career so enjoyable.

What I remember most about working with Vince, flying with him on Sabreliner N2HW, was that while he always was a consummate professional, inside and outside the cockpit, there was also just a hint of mischief in him. It was always there, and it made working with and for him a worthwhile thing. Vince was simply a good man!
My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Lynelle, so sorry to hear about your Dad. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. Love & Hugs, Sue Pochert
In 1961 my mom "Polly" began a whole new career working for Vince and Brownie at Executive Air! I will never forget her nervous excitement when she was hired, even though I was only 11 or 12 years old. It was a dream job for her after raising 3 girls, and she very quickly was considered part of the Executive Air Family.
My mom sang praises for her bosses on a regular basis. Vince was kind, professional, and just a great guy all around. AND, he had a beautiful daughter (Lynelle) that started to work there with my mom. Polly was a stickler for details, and I do believe that there was no question who was actually in charge(My Mom). But Vince and the others treated Polly like gold, and she grew into her responsibilities as their "Executive Secretary!" My mom and dad became great friends with both Vince and Brownie and their wives on a social level as well.
And I gained a lifelong friend-Lynelle!
Vince was the true definition of a Gentleman. He was loved and respected by everyone that knew him. My deep condolences to his family and friends. Marcie (Witt) Ferris
