Vincent Lee Sendra, 72, died peacefully at his home on January 15, Vincent W and Katherine (Fleming) Sendra. He attended Manchester Elementary School and graduated from Burr and Burton Academy. He married Noreen Peck in January 1970; their marriage ended in divorce. He married Joy Ballard on May 18, 1996 and they would have celebrated their Silver Anniversary in May. He worked in both the retail and restaurant businesses, the most recent being Mulligan's of Manchester where he was worked as a manager, host and bartender. He retired in 2016 following a heart attack and bypass surgery. Lee, as he was known to friends and family, had an endearing personality and a playful sense of humor. He had the wonderful ability to make others feel good about themselves through compliments and positive words--and his words were always sincere. He made use of that ability when he volunteered to be a hospice volunteer when hospice was in its infancy in the Rutland area. He was a member and strong supporter of AA, and recently celebrated 31 years of sobriety. His survivors include his wife Joy of Wells, his Mother Katherine of Wells, a son Vince of Berkeley, CA, his sisters Mary (Michael) Senecal of Manchester, Susan (Michael) Kasuba of Wells, and two nephews Shaun Senecal of St. Albans and Ryley Senecal of Manchester, as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was also survived by his beloved cat, Liddy. He was predecesed by his Father, Vincent W. Sendra of Manchester. Due to COIVID concerns, a memorial service/celebration of life will be held at a later date.
