Vernon Vig Memorial News…
We received an email from Mrs. Vig regarding the Memorial Service for our dear Vernon.  We are all invited.  It is the same day as the Capitaland Show but if you are not planning on making the trip north, let’s join Mrs. Vig and honor our dear President and my mentor, Mr. Vig.
From Mrs. Vig:
As I mentioned previously, members of the NY Pipe Club are welcome to attend Vernon’s memorial service. It will be held on
Saturday, June 21, 11am
at
Grace Church
Brooklyn Heights (254 Hicks St [google.com],
between Joralemon St and Grace Court),
and will be followed by a reception at the church.

Vernon’s nephew told me about the Chicago Pipe Show. Vernon would be pleased to know that the slow smoking contest was being named for him!
