Vern and I were classmates at Assumption. In the summer of 1958, I worked with him at Union Electric in East St. Louis. Vern was a soft-spoken, gentle man, the embodiment of goodness and decency. I am happy to say he was my friend. Rest in peace, Vern. Flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Dear Vernon, I am so glad I found that old hand printed book about the history of the Holy Cross Cemetery. We wanted you to have the book. we called you and we met in Smithton. A lot of stories about our times at St. Philips grade school and Union Electric. We so enjoyed being with you. My Mom Mary Hellyer, Brother Jack Hellyer and Grandma Pabst are all at Holy Cross Cemetery. Please give them our love.

Uncle Vernon, we will all miss you very much. I will miss our long distance chats and our yearly visits to Cracker Barrel with family. I am so sorry not to be able to be there for your visitation, Mass and service at Holy Cross. This Covid virus is cheating us out of precious time. Please say Hi to all the family in heaven and I will see you again hopefully in our eternal life. Love, Jan
