Verne will be truly missed by our family! We will never forget just sitting around talking while with the kids crawled over Jasper, our New Year’s Eve Chinese dinners, our Oreo memorial dinner and Verne’s solo at the block party, just to name a few.
Verne was so smart and knew about everything Engineering related. Craig loved picking his brain! We loved his laugh and his great sense of humor! What a proud grandpa he was! He loved Diane and Alison and her family with all of his heart! This man truly made a difference!
So very sorry. Prayers for all of you.
This is a beautiful obituary. Verne and his sense of humor will be truly missed.
Sorry for your loss. We will all miss Verne.
