He attended schools in Davis County and graduated from Viewmont High School. He was known to many growing up as "the Tigger", "Vancer Dancer", "Vancin Around, Vinnie", and known most by his friends as "Pino" with that twinkle in his eyes, that would get lost in his grin. His family grew to include his step families and little brothers. He always had the most fun. He loved to see how fast his new shoes could run. He gained great hand strength by creaming everyone in Nintendo, which later became valuable in his golf game grip. He had a great outside shot playing hoops. He loved flying down any mountain strapped to his boards and jumping off the cliffs at Lake Powell. He loved his dogs Cinnamon, Har ley and Hobie; they knew he was always good for a handout. He had worked for Oakridge Country Club in grounds keeping to be near the game he loved most. He loved the tunes of Dave Mathews, Jack Johnson and Jimmy Buffet when no one else knew who they were. Vance loved everyone, by the time he finished a transaction at the counter for a car rental agency the customer would want to take him home with them. If you spent any time with him at all, you felt like you were his best friend. He accepted everyone as his friend and offered love and support in any difficult situation. He accepted everyone's differences, weaknesses and shortcomings. He always offered his help. He valued others and reminded them of their great worth by his unconditional love for them. He taught us charity just being in his presence. He gained a witness of the power of prayer in his life and knew Heavenly Father was aware of his struggles. Vance is survived by many who were fortunate to know and love him and he will be missed greatly; his family includes his mom Marsha Case and her husband Craig, his dad Terry Coburn and his wife Rebecca.
