Our hearts and prayers go out to the Hernandez family. May the wonderful memories Vince left behind help alleviate your sorrow. He will truly be missed and will never be forgotten. Especially because he made a great impact in my sons love of the Cubs. At only 7 years of age my son recalls visiting and having discussions with him about the Cubs and occasionally playing catch with him. May you rest in peace.

Mrs. Hernandez as for me you are my mentor, teacher, and friend. I pray that God give you the strength to surpass this sorrow and help you find peace to continue being the great person you are. Love you always, Lopez Family
