May God comfort EYN and your family.”
Another church member, Prince Malikson Papaman, shared his sorrow on Facebook, describing the pastor’s passing as leaving an “unfillable void.” He found solace in the Bible’s assurance that death is but a sleep, recalling how Reverend Vincent had delivered his final sermon with passion just hours before.
