A Husband, Father, GrandFather, Great Grandfather, WWII Naval Veteran and friend, Vern was known by many names. He taught me at a young age the many tenants of life: how to manage money, run a business, treat people fairly and with respect, and of course... eat copious amounts of ice cream ;). My Sundays will never be the same without you Grandpa.
