I had been dreading this news since I met Vincent for the first time some months ago when I bought an item from him. He was clearly then an unwell man.
Thank you Mike, for letting the community know the sad news.
He'll be waving back to us when we are next observing. Perhaps we mightn't notice.
My deepest sympathies to Vincent's family.

That is terrible news. I also recall him saying he wasn't too well. My condolences to his family.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Vincent’s passing last week.
I spoke with his son last weekend, who confirmed Vincent was quite attached to Iceinspace and had many friends here.
While not well for some time, Vincent deteriorated rapidly.
He will be sadly missed.

I don't think I ever met or corresponded with him, but it is always saddening to loose a fellow traveler.
Sincere condolences to his family and may he indeed, rest in peace.

Terrible news
Only a couple of weeks ago Joe and I were wondering of he was ok as we hadn't seen any sign of him on IIs.
Little did we know that he had already passed away.
Rest in Peace,Vincent

Very sad news, and I am sorry to hear it, but thanks for letting us know. I did not know him but I see he joined around the same time I did and has been a "part of the furniture" here for me nonetheless. Rest in Peace.
