Our deep sympathy. Class of 1955.
Vernon was a valued high school classmate and friend. I remember him as a straight-forward guy, a sure tackler on the football team and a person who knew what he wanted to do. I also recall competing with the Mueller family for paper route territory in Mahnomen! On behalf of myself, my wife Gerry, and, I am sure, many of our 1955 classmates, sincere sympathies to the family on your loss. I have notified those classmates that I could reach. We hope you have a very special family gathering at the time of the memorial celebration. Jim and Gerry Langemo, Detroit Lakes
