When Vicente Jr. got his first hiccups, his parents would call him “Hiccup” due to having very squeaky hiccups. Vicente Jr. loved to play with cars and tractors. He would push them around the house or grab and flip them upside down and twist the wheels, as he was a curious spirit. He also loved when his father would raise him above his father’s head and say “Simba”, and in doing so Vicente Jr. would smile. Vicente Jr. also had a smile that could cleanse a hurting heart and fill a Spirit with joy. When Vicente’s mother was still pregnant with him, she would notice when his father and herself would listen to music together, he would be very actively moving around inside her womb.

Vicente Jr. always loved bears; he would fall asleep when he would be given stuffed bears. When he would laugh, he made the whole room be his stage, as he would have everyone adore him in doing so, and his laughter was his spotlight. Vicente Jr. was well known to be a BIG Mama’s boy. He also was a Grandma’s boy to both of his Grandmothers and was adored and loved by both.
