I am truly sorry to hear of Vern's passing. I worked for Vern at A.C. Moore for 10 years. I still can't look at a package of Juicy Fruit with out thinking of him, He was never with out it. What a sweet, kind and caring soul he was.. My thoughts and prayers goes to all his family and friends. He will be missed by so many. -Donna (Lundberg) Prisament
