I still have the picture of Brody, Uncle Vince and Aunt Edie on my fridge from last Memorial Day. This was when I was pregnant with Lucas. My dad was so happy to have Uncle Vince and Aunt Edie meet his grandson! Brody's middle name is Reed!
Even though Lucas never met Uncle Vince, I know he is looking over him.
It makes me smile to know that Uncle Vince is with Marj, , mom-mom and pop-pop and Queenie!! All of you are in our thoughts during this tough time. We love you!

Love The Havens Family
