For those of you who knew Vernon, a service of thanksgiving for his life – all one hundred years of it! – will be held at Goldthorpe Pentecostal Community Church on Tuesday 11th January at 12 noon, followed by interment at Great Houghton cemetery at 1 p.m.

If you are able to attend the funeral, you would be most welcome. It is always good to rejoice at what God has done in the lives of His people and to support those who are mourning.
