Peggy, Veejay, Andrea and Beth,
I enjoyed connecting with Uncle Vern through messages on Facebook. He would send me old photos and asked if I’d pass them along to my Mom. He would tell me the history behind each photo he’d send to me. Here is one of my favourite old photos of my Grandmother Ann Urquhart Stiles holding Vern. He told me this was picture was taken in Scotland early March 1945 before they boarded the boat to come to Canada, three months before the end of WW2. Wonderful memories
You are all in my thoughts and prayers

I am so sorry to hear of Vern's passing. I am out of town, thus the delay in sending this to you. I never worked closely with Vern, but got to know him through NBTel social events. We both retired from NBtel at the same time and kept in touch over the years with several interesting and thoughtful conversations. Vern will be missed by all who knew him. I know that your family will get through these tough time by treasuring the wonderful family memories.

She loved counting the pages of your book you were reading and teasing you trying to forget what page you were on. I am so glad we got to see you again last week.
