I worked in CTK’s office for many years. This picture brought such a smile to my face. It depicts Vince on Monday mornings when he would bring their envelopes to the office. He would always say he knew we needed the money and he wanted to be sure it got to us. What a delightful man...I know he’s dealing those angels a fit!
