MY father acted with him at the Crest Theatre (Toronto) for two seasons.60 & 61 ttbomk
(as an aside, the producer of the Crest seasons was Mavor Moore for whom the Toronto Theatre awards , for which my Mother was a founding board member,was named)
I used to make sandwiches ( and open beers) for him(Vernon), my dad and a number of the other cast members on poker nights at our house.
He spoke kindly of my Father at his memorial service.

" I have always found that the main obstacle to free
association on these boards is the broad
misconception that what we do not know is more
significant than what we do know."
