About Me


Myspace Codes & Myspace LayoutsHello everyone, My name is Vinny, I am a 56 year old Italian American man. I grew up in Bensonhurst Brooklyn and spent most of my life in that neighborhood. I have very fond memories of my childhood and the good times I had with my friends and family. I moved to long Island in 1997 and I love it here. I have been married to my wife Joanne for 36 years and we have 3 great children (Teri, Michael and Amie). I have 3 beautiful grandchildren Ashley, Kenny and Leah). If you check out my pictures you will see how cute they are. I am a retired law enforcement officer who spent 22 years of my life helping to keep New York a safer place to live in. I am very proud of my accomplishments during that time in my life and I miss the comradery we had amongst the people I worked with. I now work for BJ's Wholesale club as the Loss Prevention Manager and I am enjoying meeting new people and making new friends. I am a deeply rooted Christian man totally dedicated to Jesus Christ and my family. I have been blessed with a good singing voice and I been involved in music ministry for over 25 years. It is my desire to someday write a Christian song and record it. It will be called "Lord, Why Won't They Listen". In my lifetime I have led many people to Christ but there are people in my own household who refuse to listen. This song will pour out these feelings from my heart. My biggest joy in life these days is spending time with my grandchildren. I am never too tired to play with them, act like a fool and just do silly things to make them happy. They light up my world and I enjoy every precious moment God gives me with them.


VINCENT

From the Roman name Vincentius, which was from Latin vincere "to conquer". This was the name of several saints. The postimpressionist painter Vincent van Gogh was a famous bearer of this name.
