Posted Mar 23, 2016
Vincey Varghese was many things to many people.She was like a daughter to her youth pastors, a friend to everyone she met, a coach to the youth at her church and a Tar Heel at heart — right down to the UNC blanket laid across her in her casket. Varghese, a junior biology major, died Wednesday from complications following surgery to remove a brain tumor. She was 21.
