Happy Birthday Vern! We first met during a factory tour in 1966, led by Bill Simon. A few of the slides I snapped survived all these years. Here are my buddies posing in front of the rocket near the lobby, and the ladies in Order Processing assembling my order. My wife and I met you and Gleda at NSL-2018 in Geneseo, and again in August at NARAM-60 in Pueblo.

Thanks for the wonderful memories flying rockets all these years.

The very best of birthday wishes to you, Vern!

You’ve heard it said probably somewhere approaching a million times, if not more, but a super-big THANK YOU for all you have done to bring so very much happiness to so many people! Both you AND Gleda! What a team you two have been!
