Tributes
"When I would run into Vurl, He would always stop and speak to me, with kind words and a joke. He often spoke about His parents and my Grandparents and how they interacted when He was a kid. Vurl would take me to a time of peace and contentment. He never had a bad day. If you had Vurl in your life, it was a blessing. He will be missed. Sorry for Your loss. Stan"
"My deepest condolences to the Lippencott family. I grew up across the street from Barbara and Vurl. I have very fond memories of both as they have always been very lovely people. Vurl was a teaser and both were always kind and caring and helpful with sound advice. May God grant all of you peace and comfort at this junction of life. I am sorry that I won't be able to make the services as mom is not doing well and we have a meeting with her doctors. Love to all. Kathy (Lewis) Wood"
