Vince was a childhood Hero of mine.
Him & my Father 'The Great John L',  were best friends for years.
In the mid 60s, Dad met him. He was a TV repairman at a RCA store. Later he had the A-bar-T horse stables, on the Santa Ana Riverbed. He was a Gym fanatic & always gave me motivation, in that direction.  At 66, that motivation is still there & I keep up with my gym time.  Since Dad passed away in '05 & I've moved from CA, I  lost touch.
Real Sorry to hear about his passing. 
Thanks for the memories.

There isn't enough room in this little square to comment of all the wonderful things I know about Vince.  I have wondered what happened with him for the last couple years.  He used to drop by from time to time and we would visit and talk about old times and "The Junk Yard Gym".  I do think that was some of the best years of his life.  he loved to share his knowledge of body building with anybody who was interested.  Vince and I shared a Birthday and neither one of us would say which year!  LOL!  I just now found out that I was right!  Vince!  I always knew you were the oldest!   You managed to be very handsome and fit till the end.  Congratulations !  

My dear friend.  I miss you every single day and I don't think that's ever going to change.💔

I think that I met the Flammini family in the late 50's, Vinces's mother, Mary, sister Carol, brother Tommy, brother Frank. 
I am very happy that Vince told me that he had met a new wonderful friend, and his name was Jesus. Before he had his first stroke, I was surprised when he told me that his life had changed and had a new meaning here on earth, I know what he meant. Vince is now rejoicing with the saints in heaven having an amazing time with Jesus. 

I met Vince 40 years ago I’ve always loved him very much. Even though I was spoiled and stubborn, he was patient and kind. He pushed me to become a champion bodybuilder and fitness coach. He gave me more knowledge than I could’ve gotten from any book. He was always right about everything (which drove me crazy) mostly because I wouldn’t listen and would suffer the consequences. It didn’t matter though because he’d still be there to pick up all the pieces. He got me to feel and move again after my SCI accident when all the doctors said I wouldn’t. Because of Vince I live an active independent life! All of my best memories are of us doing so much together! Traveling, classic cars, laughing and dancing! You’ll be missed. I feel him all around me and am comforted knowing he’s still looking out for me!

A very handsome, young Vincent Victor Flammini

I'm am so sorry and heartbroken. I loved him so much.

Oh my. I literally was just speaking of him last night.  Actually several times over this past week.  I kind of made a mental note to myself last night, that, "Hmm, I've sure been thinking of Vince a lot lately." 

I know there is nothing that can be said to lessen the sorrow and grief. It is, however, comforting to know the enormous amount of love felt for him, the respect, the gratitude, and admiration.

He made such an impact in my life.  .  .  a lasting imprint. He positively touched countless lives over the years.   There is volumes to say about Vince! Thankfully, I know the stories will come and we can celebrate his contribution to humanity. 

He and his spirit was and remains larger than life.

Peace and Love.
