Vernon, Charlotte, Melvin, and Woody......Gosh....finding the apprppriate words is so difficult. My memories of "Miss Willie" are inescapably intertwined with "Mr. Vernon" during a very formative period in my life. Mr. Vernon and Miss Willie, in my eyes, were a very cool and grounded couple, and if they could corral Melvin and Woody and shape them into responsible adults, I was signing on, also. I remember Miss Willie as she would enter Oakley's Department Store and "glide" (ever so smoothly)to her destination point. Miss Willie was a true gracious, southern lady. May the fond memories that I'm sure we all hold close to our heart bring us comfort and may we all be assured that Mr. Vernon and Miss Willie are once again "cool and grounded."
