Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?

Dearest Nick,

I have logged on many times but the words wouldn't come. I have been filled with such sorrow for you and your family. I don't even want to think of how it might feel because I have such strong emotions and can feel pain of others.

Although I only met your father a couple of times I remember him. I don't know if you remember but he helped me in the kitchen once when I was running behind and I went into "Mom's" room to ask for help and he jumped right in.

I wish there was something I could do to help you and if there is - maybe baking you your favorite cookie - or something - I am here.

Take care,

Dana Langford

Dear Settineri Family,

Sincere, heartfelt sympathy on the loss of Vince. I first met Vince in 1986 while on a consulting engagement at Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Illinois. Since then, Vince has remained a friend, even across the miles. His knowledge, warmth, sense of humor, and deep,abiding love of his wife and children stand out in my memory. I shall miss my friend in Chicago. May you gain comfort in the knowledge of how Vince lived life and what he meant to so many. Sincerely, Claudia Gauches, Stonington, CT

Shocked and saddended by the unexpected news of Vince's death - the old office group from Northbrook, 1980-1984, a lively, interesting place during our work together. Andy and Bob Logan, Dave Fullerton with Vince and me - what a great time we had. Remember the "lunches at the Bus Stop Cafe" - "who pays today?" We remember Vince with love and thanksgiving for his smile.
