HIDDLESTONE
(Vernon Thomas) :
29.11.1940 - 30.06.2014 Peacefully passed away. Loving husband of Kay, devoted father of Donna, Kelly, Natalie and Brooke. Mentor to John, Steven and Sean. Supportive pop of Reece, Grace, Matt, Ruby, Blake, Logan and Tom. No longer in our lives to share, but in our hearts he's always there.

A loving and generous husband of fifty years. The love you gave, the way you cared, you left a place no one can fill. My life will go on but not the same without you. Your gifts of love are mine to keep. Love you always, Kay xx
HIDDLESTONE (Vern):
Dad, in loving memory of my amazing dad, an honourable and loyal gentleman whose support and love was endless. I'm missing you, but yet you will always be in my heart. So very proud to have you as my dad. I love you always, Brooke xx

To Natalie and the Hiddlestone family, Shane and the team at Hiddlestone Electrics. It was with great sadness we learned of Vern's passing. Although we knew him mainly in a business sense, his humour, his sharp mind, his great character and his fair and good natured business demeanour will surely be missed. Wishing you all strength and comfort at this time from the team at Giant Nissan & Hyundai.

Hey Nat
Just wanted to get in contact with you about your dad.
Sean, Sue and Allan had always spoken so highly of Vern and I was looking forward to meeting him at Sean's 40th.
We had a great chat that day it was clear that Vern was one of those blokes you occasionally give the "legend" status to.
Such a great man.
So sorry for your loss Nat.
I will not be able to make it on Saturday but will be thinking of you on that day as I am right now.
Stay strong for your mum.
Love Adam Jennings

Mr H, the "Big V" Vern. You've left a legacy that's impossible to fill, a void in the heart of so many. I have so many wonderful memories of a childhood drenched with laughter and fun, taking down lights in Rokeby Rd, sneaking off in Mandurah, you banning me from seeing your daughter for a WHOLE YEAR (although by now I'm sure you've worked out who was the trouble maker), Broome. You and Kay coming to Esperance to help me when the twins were born. Coming to visit me at Ronald McDonald House when Amber was born, my wedding the list goes on. I don't think you ever realised how many lives you shaped, how many kids you inspired. Gone but never forgotten.
