Vernon passed away on May 11, 2023, at the age of 66. He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. He was born in Mobile, Alabama on May 11, 1957, to the late Cora Lee and Vernon Dunn Jr. He joined the Army and served for 13 years where he performed as a medic, medical assistant, and dermatologist technician.
