I heard the sad news through several trusted sources on social media last night. Vince and Shane Lacey's school is local to our CA HQ (Dave was Vince's brother). I didn't know the Laceys well but I did know them, for many years in fact. The last time I saw the Laceys was at GM Allen Joe's funeral.
I haven't heard anything about the cause or funeral details. Perhaps some one else here knows more.
Tough day for the wulin. We lost both the Bald Eagle Ji Chunhua and a Black Panther Dave Lacey. :(

Of the Lacey clan, I know Shane best, and really that's only in passing. In fact, I often confused Dave with Vince. I've already seen another facebook post where someone claimed Vince had passed.Quote:

Vince is a little larger in frame than Dave was. GM Dave was on the thinner side. GM Vince had more meat on his bones.
GM Vince is still alive. I called his son Shane last night to check in on them.
I'm sure it's a tough time and please give the family our condolences. Also, if they are interested in having us publish an obituary, let them know I'm available to them for that. I may reach out too, but it's a tad awkward because I don't really know them that well.
Condolences,
I have never met this person and it hurts.
RIP
mickey
