Lasting Memories

Vincent Collins
June 19, 1944-March 19, 2015
Palo Alto, California

Vincent DePaul Collins II, 70, resident of Palo Alto, California, taken from us on March 19, 2015. Son of Margaret Collins, brother of Andrea and Patrick Collins, and loving father to Vincent, Jackie and Mechelle Collins. Caring grandfather of six children who loved him dearly.

Collins lived in, and managed, a senior living complex. In his spare time he enjoyed peaceful coastal trips, exercising, writing and family visits. His youth was filled with basketball, riding horses and motorcycles, and singing in his band The Soul Seekers.

His true entrepreneurial spirit led him to start several corporations and develop a number of patents. Collins was a Renaissance man; a published author, philosopher, business man, singer and athlete, he was always learning, sharing, and seeking spiritual harmony for himself and others.

He will be greatly missed by his family and those whose lives he touched.
