For many years I have visited with Vernon when he would come into my place of employment. We had the best conversations about our grandchildren in sports. I have missed seeing him lately and will really miss our talks in the future. My Deepest Sympathy to his Family…..Mary Greenfield
I will miss the way that Vernon gave me hell for my driving! I always enjoyed talking to him at ballgames. I will miss you!
My sympathies to the family, Vernon was a great guy. Spent my share of time with him during half time, at the Bunkhouse, during the Agar games.
Thinking of you during these tough times.
