Uncle Vern was one of my favorite people. Sorry to hear we’ve lost him.  Condolences to Aunt Millie and the kids.

I remember My cousin Vernon Gardner as the Gentle Giant. His efforts toward  the addiction recovery of several adult males that   Came into his life primarily 
at the Repair Shop that Vernon owned.  Vernon would give them
a job and gradually give them kindness and a reason to live and recovery from their addiction. While visiting with Vernon and Millie on several occasions, I watched this Gentle man and his methods, achieve results that were 
almost miraculous. On one visit, l watched him return a man to his family. Vernon made a  return trip of more than 300 miles to do
this act of kindness.  I ask, why do
You go to so much trouble to help
these people? His answer was short and simple, “someone has got 
to help them “ and  Some how  I can.  Kindness and caring seems to
be the answer.  
I’ve seen and done many things ,
But Vernon’s ability to help those 
Addiction Victims  recover really 
Impressed me.

Sincerely,
