He grew up on the homestead and received his education at the Huron Township Rural School in that area. He worked on the Grandma McDonnell farm for several years. He also farmed with his parents until entering the US Army on July 8, 1942. He served until his honorable discharge on November 17, 1945. He returned to the Quinn area where he continued on that family farm. Vern was united in marriage to Beulah A. Harrison on June 6, 1949, in Wall, and to this union was born a son Steven. They made their home on their present farm which they farmed their entire married life. In 2005, the farm became a century farm, having been in the family for 100 years. After Beulah's death on April 17, 1994, Vern continued to reside on the farm until March 1, 2006, when health reasons forced him into the Philip Nursing Home. Vern was a member of St. Patrick's Catholic Church of Wall, the FJ Willuweit VFW Post #9120 of Quinn, and the Carroll-McDonald American Legion Post #246 of Wall. Survivors include his son Steven McDonnell and his wife Terry Jo of Quinn; four grandchildren Rhonda McDonnell of Wall, Coral McDonnell of Denmark, Brady McDonnell and his wife Sherri of Rapid City, and Jay McDonnell of Quinn; nine great-grandchildren Madison, Laketon, and Cooper McLaughlin of Wall, Sara Rose McDonnell of Denmark, and Allan, Bradan, Rylan and Taylor McDonnell of Wall, and Finn McDonnell of Rapid City; and a host of other relatives and friends.
