Dear Jo Ann, Theresa and Michael and families,
Please accept our condolences on the death of Vern. He was very much a part of our Cedar family and he is missed. That wonderful smile and the way his eyes lit up, especially when we talked baseball, brought a smile to our faces as well.

Our deepest sympathy at the passing of Vern. My Dad, Bob Ring, always told us stories of the adventures he and Vernie had together as children in Saint John (like riding on a little wooden wagon down Watson Street, coming to a stop only by intentionally smashing into a telephone pole…repeatedly! Dad looked forward to speaking with Vernie every December when they celebrated their respective birthdays.By a stroke of serendipity, Bob's granddaughter (my daughter) , Erin, had a few playdates with Vernie's grandson, Matthew, when they were both very young. It was only later we realized the significance of this connection.
He will be missed.

One of the best, we met when I moved west at the age of twelve, probably in Queen Square West, the Mill Pond or . Me being a Brooklyn Dodgers and Toronto Maple Leaf fan, and Vern a Yankee and Canadiens fan, we had many friendly arguments.
We played ball together and against each other, and always remained friends.
Unfortunately I had not seen him for some time, the last being at Tims , of course we talked sports; I told him not to worry because when he died, God would convert him to the Dodgers & Leafs. My thoughts are with his family but now he is at peace.

When I was a kid growing up near the old East Saint John Ballfield, I can remember having the opporunity to shag fly balls in the outfield, learning how to catch batting practice balls. Vernie caught them bare hand. Enough said! Respect earned!

I was so sad to hear of your Dad's passing. I knew him as "Mick" because that is what my Dad called him as they shared a special relationship in the Village. My heart is with you at this time but I know, Mick is smiling from above and keeping all of you close. Keep smiling Mick, you were one of a kind. God Bless xo.
