AJDC is deeply saddened by the loss of our friend and member, Vincent Polisano. Vinny, as he was known, was the life and business partner of Diane Chrambanis and together they founded the award winning Diana Vincent Fine Jewelry. They were members of AJDC for many years.
Vinny passed away on September 29, 2020 from cancer.
“Vinny” was a light on this earth and a very rare human being. He loved life, living, and people. Being the extravert that he was he enjoyed talking and meeting people in every walk of life. He would engage with someone at any given time and at any given place leaving a smile on a stranger’s face in his wake. He never would sweat the small stuff and never held back from doing or enjoying because he would say “one day you might just wake up with something”.
“In the last months of his life he could not get over how ugly and in trouble the world has become and hoped for people to learn that by treating each other with love and kindness is the way to make for a better world”.
Everyone in AJDC will remember Vinny’s zeal for life and we will cherish his friendship always. Our hearts go out to Diane and their family.
