Vernon WALTER Petty Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on April 26, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Vernon WALTER Petty of Vero Beach, Florida, born in Miami, Florida. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
In the echoes of fond remembrance, may a sense of peace be found, knowing that the memories held dear will continue to shape and inspire his loved ones, keeping Vernon's spirit alive in the hearts and actions of family and friends alike. While his presence may be gone, his impact lives on in the kindness shown to others and the joy found in the ordinary moments of life.

He is survived by: his significant other Ingrid; his children, Michael Petty (Heather Kilbourn) and Monique Heavren; his son-in-law Brian; and his grandchildren, Natalie Allegra (Domenic), Brian and Christopher.
