He loved to golf, have coffee with friends and vacation in Mexico. A celebration of his life will be12;30 pm Saturday, Feb 25th, 2012 @ Sevenoaks Alliance ,2575 Gladwin Road. Vern (Dad) you will be dearly missed and live forever in our hearts – “til we meet again” In lieu of flowers donations to the Christine Morrison Hospice in Vern’s name would be so welcomed.
