Velton Nell Long Vincent, 82, of Lake Charles, passed away Sunday, October 27, 2013 in the comfort of her home.
Mrs. Vincent was born in Port Arthur, TX and has lived most of her life in Lake Charles. She was a graduate of Marion High School. Velton Met Robert Vincent on a blind date arranged by a couple of church friends. They courted for four years before getting married. Robert loved the fact that she had personality traits which he didn't have. Velton was very outgoing and social while he was more the quiet type. Her unique style and ways made him fall on love with her. They married in 1954 and have two children.
She worked over sixty years, along side her husband, assisting the ownership and operations of Louisiana Radio Communications. She also worked nearly twenty years as a switchboard operator for St. Patrick's Hospital. During this stage of her life, Mrs. Vincent followed her children to Blue Birds, Cub Scouts, school and church functions as she grew to become a pillar of influence in the eyes of many young people. She was a woman of faith, a member of First Pentecostal Church as a young child, married in the church and was a lifelong member and active participant in countless events. She loved to travel, sew and "embellish". Mrs. Vincent will be most remembered as a selfless woman who helped everyone, judged no one, with a heart and smile that brightened any room.
She had two Kids
One Son Perry Vincent
And
One Daughter Celia Case
Two Grandkids
Jon Garret Vincent
And
Stormi Vincent Sonnier
Two Great-grandkids
Adalee and Laila Vincent
