Barbara, We are thinking of you and your loss. Our prayers are with the entire family.
On behalf of the Stasaski family, I’d like to extend my condolences. My favorite memories of Vern include the interview Katie conducted for school about his time playing baseball in the Marines. I also have fond memories of how he drove Barbara, Ginny, and me around as kids in that little VW Rabbit. Our thoughts are with the Muncy family during this time of loss. Renea Stasaski
Barb, Karen and I sincerely send our condolences and prayers at this time of your family loss. But, please remember that your loss is heaven’s gain.
We are really saddened to hear of Vern’s passing. He was one of the kindest, most precious men I have known, a real Christian gentleman. I loved him! One of my Sunday School teachers at McKendree when I was in high school, the witness of his life was the best lesson ever. We will miss his presence on this earth but are so thankful for his life and friendship. Blessings on you all as you all as you make your way through this time.
Barb,
We grew up together and in the nursery at church. Your father was a sweet, gentle-spirited man. He always made me feel welcome and at home. I am so sorry for your loss! I know he and your mom are celebrating right now. Love you friend!
