Vern Slaybaugh, 96, son of Earl and Jennie (Tallman) Slaybaugh, was born on a farm near Guthrie Center, Iowa on May 17, 1919. He passed away Monday, March 28, 2016 in Garden City, Idaho.
On May 6, 1944, Vern was united in marriage to Marjorie Robinson. They were married for 71 years until her passing in June, 2015. In August, 2015 he moved to Boise, ID to be nearer to family. At the time of his passing, Vern lived at Emerson House, Garden City, ID.
Vern and Marjorie farmed near Yale until Vern retired from farming in 1972. Then they moved to Panora where he worked as machinery set-up mechanic for the local John Deere implement dealer. Moving to town didn't stop Vern's passion for farming. He and Marjorie had a beautiful garden that seemed to get a little bigger each year. They canned, froze and shared the produce with friends and neighbors. Many weeks you could find Vern and Marjorie at the local farmer's market selling their garden produce along with Marjorie's baked goods and bouquets of flowers.
After retirement Vern and Marjorie took up dancing at jam sessions every Saturday evening for many years. For their 50th anniversary they celebrated with a dance to the surprise and delight of their daughters, family, and friends. They also enjoyed traveling in their retirement years with trips to Alaska, the Northeast to see the fall colors and the National Parks of the West with their daughter, Linda. Several times they traveled to Branson, Mo, besides trips to see their daughters and families.
Vern is survived by his daughters, Verneta Reed of Anderson, SC; Linda (Red) Schlichting of Medford, OR; and Barbara (Denis) Feichtinger of Boise, ID; eight grandchildren, seven great grandchildren and a sister-in-law, Betty Slaybaugh of Guthrie Center. He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife, Marjorie; brothers, Ivyl and wife, Lila, Ollie and wife, Dorothy, Walter, and his sister, Nyla.
Memorial services will be held at 4:00 P.M., Saturday, June 25, 2016 at the Panora United Methodist Church. Visitation will be held at 3:00 P.M. at the church with a light supper after the service. Burial will be at Greenwood Cemetery at 2:00P.M.
