  6. My buddy Tom, THE main man Vern – what’d you have to go and do this for?!
    What a fabulous spirit, always a good chuckle after an insightful comment. Die-hard Packers fan no less, and swapping fishing secrets – I’ll truly miss that with him. The great thing is that now Debbie and the twin towers (his lads Aaron & Bryce) will have a guardian on overwatch for them and their families.
    I’ll throw a mouthful of prayers your way every now and then-
    May God bless the Lee Family-
    Tim & Meg Metzler

  7. Debbie, I was saddened to hear of Tom’s passing. Gone too soon.
    I have good memories of our families getting together back in Sylvan Lake. Sending you and yours my sympathy.
