My condolences to the family. Vernita was one of my closet friends in pharmacy school so Addison quickly became a good friend too. I was a bridesmaid in their wedding. I have so many happy memories of our times together during school and following graduation as we entered the work world. I feel blessed to have known them both.

Becky and I send our condolences to the family. Addison was a great guy and we graduated together in the Jackson High class of 1970. He and Vernita have left a good legacy here and I hope that the good memories will comfort you.

Addison,
You were my best friend growing up, since age 6 months. I'll never forget the fun times we had playing on Northwood and in the ditch behind your house, swimming and playing golf at the Jackson CC, joining and going to TKO parties together, and our 30 day camping and canoeing trip out west. I won't mention all the fun times we had getting into trouble together - mischievous boys we were. Life is full of joys and heartbreaks. My heart is broken that you will no longer be with us on earth but am joyful that you have be taken to your forever home to reunite with Vernita. I'll miss you terribly. Rest in peace.
