Veteran record exec VERNON SLAUGHTER has passed. SLAUGHTER who left the industry years ago to become an attorney, was living in PHOENIX ARIZONA.
His family is having his body shipped to OMAHA where services will held. The cause of death was reported as complications due to diabetes.
LIVING LEGENDS FOUNDATION CHAIRMAN DAVID LINTON said, "We lost a good one in VERNON. Our relationship went back to the days he was a college rep at CBS RECORDS and I was programming my college station at SHAW. As the years progressed and our friendship grew, we discovered we were Kappa Alpha Psi frat brothers. When he became a lawyer, he even did some work with my wife ELEANOR at KAPER RECORDS. VERNON SLAUGHTER was a consummate professional and a great human being."
