Sorry for Your loss of Vernon. My Husband said he thinks he bought a 1965 corvette off Vernon in 1978! He heard him on Swap Shop radio.

My memories of Vern are fond indeed. He and Karen were very kind to me, especially when my Chuck went to be with his Lord. I see them getting to know each other better than they ever were able to here. My prayers go with Karen and the family. Wish i could be there in person
