In memory of an amazing spirit..Vincent Scerbo


Read one of vincent's blogs... a truly amazing spirit gone from this earth but forever in our hearts...an inspiration to us all.

I'M FREE
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God has chosen for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I've now found peace at the end of day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;
Oh yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
Look for the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen your pain with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and peace to thee,
God wanted me now-He set me free

Vin was just an amazing person. There are few people who lived life on their own terms like he did, and he is an inspiration to us all. He was so full of life and I will miss him dearly!!

Nicole,

Hello, my name is Matt Manochio and I'm a reporter with the Daily Record in Morris County, NJ. I'm writing a story about Vincent because he grew up in Roxbury, as did I. I'm trying to write a piece about what Vincent was like and hope that his friends can call me with some stories of what a great person he was. Please call me at 973-428-6627 or email me at mmanochi@gannett.com. If you email, please write your name, age and hometown, and how you knew him. Thanks for your help, and I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. Thank you, Matt

Nicole-
a beautiful tribute to a beautiful man. He is what we all should strive to be. He's home now, with his master, but his wings are soaring, and his smile is all around is in all of the people he touched.
