I learned alot from 'ol Vern back in the late 80's and early 90's, when I was a new Junior. He was a "tell ya like it is" tech from the old school (numec and B+W in Apollo,PA) My condolences to Jan and his family. I will always remember the "Ninja" with great respect. He will be missed by many!! As Vern used to say, " It's my way or the highway, Pal!! Har,har!!" :'(

Sorry to hear about Vern's passing I also worked for him as a green junior on generators. He taught me alot and kept me out of trouble back then. I remember 1 of his favorite sayings when he was the coordinator "Get in the can D***head". Followed by that hard to forget laugh of his. We will all miss you Vern!             Slatts

I called my father last night to ask about Vern's funeral. He said that the Health Physics "hall of famers" were there. J.Orr, P.Shonkweiler, R.Cerrato, and T.Shaffer. This is just a small listing. The "old school techs" all agreed that It was a sad day indeed. Reunions are good but not like this. I asked my dad if he would give my best to Vern's family since I could not attend. I will always remember the very first lesson Vern taught me, I was at Kewaunee and had my first taste of being inside the can as a deconner. Vern asked me to pull trash, as I was about to rip the duct tape with my teeth (inside a CA) Vern snatches the tape from me and said, " NO, fingers only!! I'm gonna break you of that habit here and now!! Thank you Vern, to this day (17 years later) I have NEVER ripped ANY tape with my teeth. To Vern, Salut! my friend, Salut!  ;) :'( 8) ;D
