Having grown up in Alfred, I have known Vern my entire life. He and my dad were colleagues and are families have been pretty close ever since. When I was a small child (3-4) and the only boy among 7 girls total (my 3 older sisters, his 4 daughters), Vern found the time to let me hang out and enjoy his train set. I used to make my way to their house and see if he could play. I would frequently get reminded of this whenever I would see them. Our condolences and sympathies to Sharon, Shaune, Cheryl, Stacey, and Corrie. Vern was a great guy and will be missed by everyone.
