He was only 73 years old. Vern has been a resident of Lake Isabella for more than 20 years and loved this valley with all his heart. He was an accomplished civil engineer and businessman. He and his business partner, Irmgard, built many upscale homes in and around the valley. One of the many designs to his credit was the Ontario Speedway. Even more to Vern's credit than his business accomplishments was the loving kindness he heaped upon his numerous friends. He was always giving of himself unselfishly. He was truly a modest unpretentious soul. He was much loved and will be missed very much by all who were fortunate enough to touch his life. Vern is survived by his sister, Thelma Kay and her husband Yukio of La Mirada, Calif.; his good friends of more than 30 years, Jim and Irmgard Medved of Kernville; their children, Karen of Bakersfield, James of Ventura and Christopher of Bodfish; all his buddies from Burger King and his many numerous longtime friends. Special thanks to Donna and Linda, Vern's caregivers for the past six weeks who helped to make his last days more comfortable. Many thanks to Hospice, especially to Sally, R.N., Yvonne and Rhetta, CNA's and the kind and helpful volunteers, Marilyn and Joanne. Graveside services will be held at Rose Hills Cemetery in Whittier, Calif. on April 28, 2004 at 3:00 p.m. Viewing will be held at 1:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Optimal Hospice Foundation, 4800 Stockdale Highway, Ste 215, Bakersfield, CA 93309.
