Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
The Grand Patriarch of your family, my long time State Farm agent, neighbor, confidant, mentor, and good friend has left us. It is truly ironic that he left us on the 10th anniversary of his long time friend and my wife’s passing. Only our Lord knows the significance of that occurence. My family and myself want to express our most sincere condolences. May his memory be eternal…

We wish to express our sincere condolences to all the family. Vernon was my boss for 16 years but more than that our friend. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.

Vernon will be greatly missed. He has been our insurance agent for over 20 years and seems like family. It’s hard to lose someone that has been in your life so long. Our sympathy is with the family.
Allen and family, I will remember Vernon for all the encouragement he gave me when I was starting as an agent. We had so much fun with Vernon and Louise on State Farm trips. We will miss him.
vern will always be remembered as the quiet, consumate gentleman, always willing to help and always showing a lot of dignity. i will miss visiting with him, but his memory will always close by.
Allen and family, so sorry to hear of your dads passing. Was a good man and somewhat of a mentor in my early years as an agent. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
