I am so sorry to hear about Vance. He was always outgoing and just a sweet guy. I voted for him to be cheerleader at WHS. I thought a guy would be a wonderful addition, and he was the right person for the job! I never knew where he went but I know he must have had a wonderful life. So sorry to his brother, children and friends. No doubt he is entertaining the Angels in Heaven. RIP Vance. You will be remembered by so many from Winona and other places.
Great memories of this fine man. Condolences to Vance’s family.
I didnt know Vance , but I did know Mr Evans and Ms Elsie . No finer people !
