After the 8th grade, Vincent supported his family by getting a job at a dairy farm delivering milk. He did this for 5 years before moving onto other work. He always drank a lot of milk, and still does, which he contributes to his long life.
In 1938, Vincent married Ann Kulick. She was born on 02 May 1915 in Little Falls and died in March 1992. Her parents were Mark Kulick (1880-1956) and Christina Dzama (1880-1938).
A year later, Vincent joined the Singac Volunteer Fire Company #3 in Little Falls, New Jersey and spent more than 80 years as a volunteer. He was even the department fire chief in the 60s.
In the 1940 U.S. census record, Vincent was living with Ann and his mother Dorothy. He was working as a foreman at a rubber mill.
In the 1950 U.S. census record, Vincent was still working as a foreman at a rubber mill, but he was now living in Little Falls with his wife Ann and his 4 year old daughter Beverly Ann, born about 1946 in New Jersey.
Vincent, despite being 110, still lives independently in the home he has lived in since 1945 and he still drives! When he passes, he will be laid to rest in the Laurel Grove Memorial Park Cemetery in Totowa, New Jersey beside his wife.
