Dear Madeline, Donna , Rhonda and families,
My family was so saddened to hear of the passing of Verne. We all have so many good memories of him not only coming to our farm on business but also along with you in friendship. Personally, I must say he spoiled me as a young girl often letting me ride in the truck with him once the grain was loaded. He would even let me blow the horn to let everyone in Hensall know we were coming! So much fun.
You will find comfort in all the great memories you have of Verne and remember your friends are thinking of you.
Sincerely, Janice Miller Newell
Vera Miller and family

Sending condolences to Madeline. Rhonda and all the families. I guess you could say Verne was a part of my whole childhood with the livestock. Apparently Dad still had one of his canes right to his passing in February. Cherish your memories.
