Our deepest condolences to the family of Vernon Werner. Vernon was our neighbor for nearly 50 years, and was one of the kindest people we have known. He was a private person who did a lot “behind the scenes” for many charitable causes, as well as lending a helping hand to friends and neighbors. He will be greatly missed. Our prayers go out to all of you.
Dear Annie and family
My deepest sympathy, I wish I could just hold you and give you the biggest hug…it will have to be put on hold for awhile.
