Dear Stephanie & family,

Our thoughts & prayers are with you and your family. It is never easy to lose someone we love, and the journey your family has been on has been one of challenge but filled with love. We pray you will experience God’s love, peace, comfort, and strength during this time. And one day, we pray you will receive His joy as you look back upon the happy memories of your life together. We wish we had been able to meet Vern – we are so glad you had such a wonderful husband and best friend! May those memories remain in your heart forever.

It’s been a long time Vernon, but I remember you as a small boy, you were so cute. I’m sorry we didn’t meet more often. You are my cousin, my Mom’s sisters son. I remember you when we used to pick blueberries as your place by Wembley, Alberta. My husband also had cancer but Praise the Lord, HE gave Luther more time and a purpose and we are in Dominica W.I. keeping the light of our Lord going forward. Praise the Lord we will meet again in Heaven. You are so blessed, you are in Glory, my name is written in the Lambs book also. PTL

What can be said about a man like my younger brother. He was truly a person that always had, and always had the ability to, make a person smile. Even as a young boy when we were growing up on the farm, if you weren’t smiling he would tease you until you did. Even though life took us in different directions and miles apart, whenever we saw each other it was as if we had seen each other yesterday. I will miss him till the it is my turn to leave this rock, but he will always live with me in my heart and my memories. I was very overjoyed when I heard he had made his life right with God before he passed. We will see each other again one day and to that day I so look forward to. I do miss you little brother and love you forever.
