Dear Alesia Family:
I was shocked to hear of your loss. I was out of town so I could not make the funeral but I thought about Mr. Alesia and the wonderful family that he loved and inspired.
Keep your faith, that Vincent is a better place, a place we all hope to be some day. Mr. Alesia is looking down on all of us and watching over us.
Once again, very sorry for your loss, and if I can be of any assistance to your family please feel free to contact us.

I was stunned to see Mr. Alesia had passed away. I have many wonderful memories of growing up with the Alesia family in Kings Point. Our families were very close at one time and I have memories of my brothers playing baseball with the Alesia boys and our dad's going to the race track together. My parents, Jim and Judy Flynn are both gone now (Jim 14 years, Judy 2) and it shows how time goes so quickly. I hope the years overall have been good to all of you. Your family is in my prayers for peace during this difficult time. Much fondness, Terri Tepper Geiss

I attended Holy Family School with Vince in 1950. He was the tallest

My family's condolences to yours. I will always remember Mr. Alesia as a man of kindness who tried to make others feel welcome. Weather it was a reassuring word when he dropped Bob and I at college for the first time our freshman year, or giving me his pick for the winner of the Kentucky Derby at a family party, he was generous, caring man.

His legacy is rich with a wonderfully loving family. He will be missed by so many.
