We gathered together a group of our extended Huston & Company family – past & present employees and friends of the business – at the end of last week for our annual Vern Burn, a celebration we hold in honor of our late employee, Ethan Verner.
As we do each year, we spent the warm fall afternoon around a bonfire partaking in some of Ethan’s favorite activities – shooting potato guns, eating Cool Ranch Doritos & pizza, and drinking shots of Jägermeister.
Ethan was a talented furniture maker, upholsterer, and a dear part of the Huston & Company family. The Vern Burn is an event we look forward to each year and is the best way we know how to honor and celebrate one of our own.
