Vernon My memories of my brother Vernon when I was a child are not much because he went to school far away from home and I did not see him often. But there is one thing I will always remember about him and that is his love of food and the trick he used to play on me. At meal time he would take some food from my plate that he liked to eat and tell me to put my big toe to his. He would then eat my food and ask if I could feel the food coming through from his to me. He tried this a few times before I eventually knew what a joker he was. As Vernon was quite a bit older than I we had our own groups of friends and interests which led us in different directions, then Vernon went to Canada and it was a long time before we met up again. This was when me and Debbie went on holidays to Canada. He insisted on showing us as many of the interesting sights there were. The main one being ‘’The Carnival’’ and we loved it. His smiles and laughter will always be remembered along with his voice of authority throughout our time spent with him in Canada and England. Will miss you so very much. Telford & Debbie

The Henry and Brown family impart our deepest condolences and sympathy to the Cunningham family in the passing of our dear cousin Vernon. Vernon was a beautiful light in our lives and we will dearly miss him. Even though many years have kept us apart (distance by countries), Vernon remains a shining light in our lives. Vernon was a wonderful nephew to our father (his uncle), Telford C. Brown. Vernon will forever be a light in our hearts (Lauren and Michelle). Our love and deepest condolences to the Cunningham family from your cousins, Michelle and Lauren.

I have worked many years with Peter, and there was not a day without hearing from his father’s health. Peter was a great support for his father during his illness, and I could feel how much he cared and loved, and how proud he was of his father. Peter, you father is not farther than a thought, and now, somewhere over the rainbow, he’s watching over his loved-ones. My sincere condolences to Peter and his family, may loving memories stay live in your hearts.

Peter and family accept my deepest condolences your Father, my brother will be sincerely missed. A few words from myself. Dear Brother, last time I spoke to you even though you were not well I could see the peace and courage on your face but that did not surprise me because you were always a person of inspiration for me and the family. You have always been strong and inspirational and helpful to me. I am so glad and pleased I could see and speak to you shortly before your passing. Your words and memories will always live on. I know now brother that you are now at peace. Love always Fitzroy & Family

Hey Mr. C, I’ve been contemplating your photo here and remembering with fondness your keen smile and the sparkle in your eye. It was a pleasure interacting with you during our extended family holiday gatherings. I will always remember your calm support during the frenetic release of my fishies in Peter’s pond :) The memory of you remains strong as we carry on. My heartfelt condolences to my “second family” - Mrs. Gwen C, Judith, Peter, the “kids”, all the fam, you have my love and gratitude. Looking forward when we can be together in person and raise a glass in memory of Vernon and his shining life.

My husband and I met Mr.C (as he is affectionately called) through my niece Kerry Ann who is married to Peter, his son.From day one we formed a special bond with him, which was strengthened by the fact that my husband is also a Lodge member, so they were brothers. Whenever we visited, we were always greeted with open arms and a happy welcoming smile followed with a hug and a kiss. If I visited alone, he would ask "How is the gentleman" referring to my husband. When the coronavirus pandemic hit the world with such severity, our visits were cut short for almost three years. During that time Mr C's illness progressed and his health deteriorated, but he was never far from our thoughts and prayers as we would enquire about his health from Peter and Kerry Ann. He has left the sickness and pain behind and moved on to a place of Peace, Joy and Happiness. Rest in Peace Mr. C Katanga and Shriver Joseph

Sending the Cunningham family condolences on the passing of Mr. Cunningham. Growing up I remember him at all of Peter's baseball games supporting him and in the winter it was hockey. A true sportsman and doting father.
