Evalynn's response was " I adore you." They were partners in every sense of
the word. The Wisner family and a crew of volunteers would operate Haunted
Houses for charity whenever the opportunity would arise. Vince also took great
joy in being Santa Claus at the West Wood Mall in Pocatello, Aid For Friends
Shelter, and any family party he was asked to make an appearance. Vince is
also very famous for his old fashioned fudge. He and Evalynn once ran "Wisner
Original Chocolates" and he was the Fudge Man. On holidays they would make
treats and give them to friends and family, everyone always looked forward to
his fudge. Vince was a caring; giving, generous man and everyone he met soon
became a friend. He was "Pops" or "Dad" to several teenagers in town, he was
always there for advice, love and understanding for whoever need-ed it. His
home, his heart, and his wallet were always open to anyone in need. He will be
greatly missed by his family, friends, and anyone who had the opportunity to
meet him. Vince is survived by his wife, Evalynn Wisner, Pocatello, ID; son,
Sgt. Benjamin Abbey, currently serving with the U.S. Army in Iraq; daughters,
Savannha (Bartley) Wisner, Pocatello, ID, Heather Jean Wisner, Maine; mother,
