Vern William Pomeroy died in Anaconda, MT on Dec. 10, 2023. He fought a long, hard battle with serious health issues beginning in the 1990s. He loved life and all things associated with his family and the mountains of Montana.
In 1958 Vern graduated from Powell County High School, Deer Lodge, MT. From there he proudly entered the Marine Corps and was stationed in San Diego, CA. Upon his honorable discharge in 1964, he returned to Deer Lodge and worked at the post office as well as a couple other jobs. Vern fathered four children in Deer Lodge: Greg, Glen, Jack, and Grace, while married to his first wife. He then moved to Spokane to begin a career in radio sales and advertising, which eventually took him to Ft. Worth, TX, where in addition to sales he managed a country western dance club. He returned to Spokane in the mid 70's. He met his wife, Shelley, in 1984, married and became a step-father to Jason Sorini. His work transferred him back to Montana in 1985. Vern was also the family genealogist for over 35 years. It was his passion and he loved sharing family history and Montana history.
Vern was preceded in death by his parents, Bill and Venita Pomeroy; infant brother, Wayne; and his older brother, Phil Pomeroy. He is survived by his children, Greg (Monica), Glen (Cathy), Jack, and Grace Pomeroy; Foster and stepson Jason Sorini; numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren, and nieces and nephews. Surviving siblings include Lorraine (John) Watson, Bill Pomeroy, Lorlyn Joy, and Judi Whitney.
Vern chose not to have a memorial service, instead wanted a quiet gathering of family to scatter his ashes at his hunting camp in the mountains. This will take place at a later date.
Rest well dear, sweet husband knowing you were loved by many. I will meet you again in Heaven one day.
