Kristen Cecilia Vincent

Kristen Cecilia Vincent, 34, of Evansville, passed away at her home unexpectedly, Saturday, March 30, 2024.

She was a small business owner of the “Talking Donkey” in Morganfield, Ky.

She wad an avid lover of music and a talented bass and guitar player, as many of her friends and family knew. She worked tirelessly to help animal shelters, nonprofits, and lost pets all over the Tri-State area find their homes.

Kristen was a vibrant, bubbly, and charismatic person to everyone that encountered her. Her love for animals spoke volumes and she was always stopping to pet and love on all the dogs she came upon, no matter where she was or what she was doing. This happened often and came so easily, as she went everywhere with her beloved furbaby, Ellie Mae. This also helped her meet new people and grow new friendships. Her faith in our Lord and Savior had only grown stronger over the last few years, and she was recently saved at a Y.E.S. Camp in September last year.

She was a loving and caring mother to her two beautiful children. She will be painfully missed by all those who knew her.

She is preceded in death by her grandfather, Vinson Gerald Vincent and her grandmother, Gertrude Cecilia Vincent.

She is survived by her father, Gary Vincent and wife, Rebecca Vincent; mother, Cherie Crafton Pepper; her son, Vinson Embry 16, daughter, Alyssa (Allie) Embry 12, and their father, Jarrod Embry; and her beloved, Ellie Mae.

Graveside services will be at Smith Mills Cemetery, Sunday, April 7th at 2 p.m.

A celebration of life service will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Cause for Paws or any nonprofit animal shelter.

Arrangements are being handled by Tomblinson Funeral Home in Henderson.
