My sincere condolences to the Smith family.
I worked at 13 Div o f Toronto Polce Service in the 1970’s. Vince was our everything guy, taking care of evidence and other seized property, working the front desk as a Station Duty Officer, locking up bad guys and in the early days girls.
He was the inspectors go to officer when he required someone dependable to complete important tasks.
I remember Smitty as one of the good guys who got things done efficiently and mostly with a smile on his face.
I’m pleased to learn he enjoyed a long retirement.
May he Rest In Peace.
