Vintage

Vintage has many times been described in the dictionary as

antique, old-fashioned, old-school, old-time, old-timey, old-world, oldfangled, quaint, retro, and retrograde.

True Vintage is always in style and built to last. The vintage pictures you see to the left of my commentary is of my Grandfather, Rene Louis Gabriel Voisin, who with my father, Roger Voisin, immigrated from France in 1928 to become members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra as trumpet players. Our heritage and ethnicity help create who we are today and not everything old is “old-fashioned”. The study of philosophy and world history (History books were written by the victors not the vanquished) can teach us that we do not seem to learn from our mistakes. Doing what it takes, being honest, being a student of life can bring us wisdom and peace of mind in our lives and in the lives of our children and grandchildren. So take stock in the vintage things in your life circle and appreciate what has come before us.
