So sad to hear the news of Vern's passing. He was a great guy, and a great sense of humor. I was so proud of him and blessed he was part of my family. Condolences to his wife Chris, their children and his sister Chris. God Bless

Vern, me, and my twin brother Gary were close adolescent and high school buddies and had many wonderful times together that I will always treasure. I see there are many, many others who will miss him and I wish to send them, his family, and dear Chris my condolences.
