Remembering Vera
After all the years of friendship with her son, I had the honor of remaining connected with Vera — Tony’s mom. She was truly one of a kind — full of warmth, laughter, and a spark that could light up any room.
She was always quick to check in on my life, and I did the same with hers. From her heartfelt condolences when I lost my mom, to her cheers and joy when I married my husband — she was always there. Whether she was checking on me, encouraging me, or telling me she was proud, her love was constant.
Our playful “wifey” and “husband” jokes always brought smiles, and her cheerful spirit made every interaction special. I was so proud to have developed a friendship with her that lasted through the years — one built on mutual love, laughter, and respect.
Vera will be deeply missed, but her kindness, humor, and the love she shared will live on in our hearts forever.
Rest in peace, Wifey… you will be missed alway
