Vitas’ loved ones will remember him for his wit, knack for story-telling, and his very particular brand of intelligence. Among his many joys were spending time with his friends and family, cheering on his beloved Red Sox team at Fenway Park, showing off his knowledge as a Lincoln car enthusiast, and consistently supporting his Lithuanian community which was very dear to his heart. In his earlier life, Vitas participated in Lithuanian community activities such as scouting, sports clubs and Lithuanian School. He attended Boston College, and later, earned a Juris Doctor (JD) law degree at Suffolk University.

Due to lent, minimal flowers will be on display. In lieu of flowers, gifts in his memory can be made to Sunlight Children’s Aid (a charity for Lithuanian children in need).
