Vernon Dale Akes

I am still shocked and deeply sadden that Vernon has passed. His unwavering kindness and friendship was so appreciated and abundant, Every time he saw you he approached you with a big smile and always wanted to know how you are doing. I will miss seeing him at the Lobo Games standing at the southern end of the Pit or walking around with Chrissy and Kevin H.. I'll never forget the times he took me up flying, and one particular time we did a cross country to Phoenix and upon returning to...

My Condolences to the Akes family, I worked with Vern at General Electric and always enjoyed him telling about his time growing up in Espanola. "El Pelo Rojo" (Red Hair) was his street name he would tell me and we would laugh at him cruising the Boulevard in his '65 Chevy lowrider. I knew it was all BS but that was Vern's humorous side and I enjoyed that about him

Rest in peace Vernon nice working with you mike Martinez say hi to Isabel she worked for your father

Always enjoyed my conversations with Vern. He was always smiling, always positive, always had an answer. He made working at G.E. better. RIP, Vern.
