It is profound sadness that we announce our beloved father, brother, uncle, cousin, father-in-law Vernon “Smink’’ Twoyoungmen passed at his late father Irby Cecil’s residence.
Vernon was born on May 1, 1982. He received his education at the Morley Community School. He had a passion for cooking, baseball, hunting, fishing, and hockey.

He is loved, cherished, and will be remembered by his children Shawntayia (Kailum), and Mila; his granddaughter Ezlynn, and the mother of his girls, Jerita; his siblings Cedrick (Rachel) and Myrna; his adopted mom Antoinette Smalleyes.
