I was so saddened to hear that Vernon had passed away. We worked together fo many years. First at Explorer and then at Williams. Vernon was the most caring and supportive person you could hope to have for a boss. Vernon and Maralee were a great team and I am sure their passing leaves a void in the hearts of everyone who had the pleasure of knowing them and being a part of their lives. I called Vernon on his birthday last July and told him I always remembered his birthday since Maralee had told me years ago that he was her Yankee Doodle Dandy! I have such wonderful memories of both of them and will never forget the kindness and support I received from them. His sons were the light of his life.Lu Myers
Vernon was a great inspiration to me growing up on Yorktown Place, he made our lives fun and enriched, I will miss him. From making root beer and grandfather clocks to rebuilding cars and fly fishing he did it all.I always looked forward to Christmas visits when down south from Canada, he and Marlee were great chefs, warm to all and loved family. My thoughts are with the you all.Love, Michael Earl Potter
