Vernon “Vern” Reber — A Life Rooted in Family, Work, and the Outdoors Early Life Born January 20, 1954 in St. George, Utah, Vern was the son of Roland A. Reber and LaRella Gifford. Vern passed away July 28, 2026 in St. George, Utah. His childhood unfolded in Mesquite, Nevada, the place that shaped him and ultimately became the home he always returned to. During his youth, Vern lived for period in Las Vegas, but Mesquite remained the anchor of his identity. He graduated from Virgin Valley High School in 1972, a milestone that tied him firmly to the community he cherished. Marriage & Family Vern married Lora Curtis on June 6, 1975, in Las Vegas. Though they later went their separate ways, they shared meaningful years together and built a family Vern loved deeply. He is survived by his sons: • Jason Reber (Allyson) • Cole Reber (Amanda) • Leo Reber And by his grandchildren, who were the greatest joy of his life: • Tavian • Avery • Savanah (Wyoming) • Statler • Hayz • Hesston • Brindle (Mesquite) These children and grandchildren were not just part of Vern’s life — they were the heart of it. Work & Daily Life Vern built a long, steady career with the Clark County Road Department, where he earned the respect of coworkers through his reliability, work ethic, and quiet dedication. He retired after years of service that helped shape the roads and infrastructure of the region he called home. Passions & Personality Vern was happiest outdoors. The mountains were his second home — especially when he was with his dad or with Vern Frehner. Those trips were full of stories, laughter, and the kind of memories that become family legend. He loved trapping, a tradition passed down through generations and shared with his father and father-in-law. Hunting was another lifelong passion, something he enjoyed with his brothers, his sons, and any friend who wanted to tag along. For Vern, the hunt was never just about the game it was about companionship, shared experience, and time spent in the open air. His daily life was filled with simple joys: • Coffee time with Jack Faught • Trips with Lyle and Sarah Hughes • Gardening, which brought him peace and pride • And above all, time with his grandchildren Family Losses Vern was preceded in death by his parents, Roland and LaRella, and his brothers Randy and Larry. Their memories remained close to him throughout his life. A Life Remembered Vern Reber lived a life defined by loyalty to his family, his work, his community, and the outdoors he loved. He leaves behind stories, traditions, and a family that carries his legacy forward.

I will send another email next week thought to give an account of my official last week and travels. Anyways, lets get into it! Google Photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/SPHBKzMm2s5zEyUQ8 Email: caiden.jones@missionary.org ————————————————————————— Mission Address Letters (in Mission) PO Box 97 Marden SA 5070 Australia Packages (in Mission) 11 Sommers Avenue Firle SA 5070 Australia ————————————————————————— Since you heard from me not the long ago, there isn't much to update you on! We did flat cleaning, I went on exchanges with my ZL, and the Sister's friend Faith got baptized! Sadly, Robert was not baptized. However, in the near future I expect to recieve some photos from his baptism. Everyone always asks what the biggest lesson I've learned on my mission is and the answer I give is charity. Mormon said it best in Moroni 7:46-48 46 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail— 47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him. 48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure. Amen. I extend the same invitation to you today! Pray for charity, and it will be well with you. We are most likely to be happy when we follow the teachings and example of Jesus Christ, and this includes having charity! If you want to improve, grow, and change, then pray for charity. I'm excited to see you all soon! I love you all and 'till next time! - Elder Jones Previous Letter Next Letter

I'm staying in Kenmore for my 4th transfer here! My new companion is Elder Nat from Cambodia 🤙. This Past weekend our friend Jack was Baptized and Confirmed! It was great seeing his progress, and witness him make his first covenant with Heavenly Father. We had some other crazy miracles in the past couple weeks. We rocked up to one of our friends named Kylie and she said that God sent us at the right moment. We also have this friend Juan who is from Columbia and we found out he works at the place our new member Marco used to work at. Marco is also from Columbia so we had an eat and teach on Friday with Juan and Marco. Other Highlights 🙌 - Played Chair Soccer with the Hope family and one of our friends Mateas - Went to Mateas soccer match - had interviews - went to corner pizza a couple times - ZONE P-DAY 🌭 Spiritual Thought : What matters most is not how talented people are but their willingness to put themselves on the field. They do not wait to have their number called, because they know the scripture that says, “If ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work.” You can put yourself in the lineup.
