Vera Hannigan, born August 20, 1932, a mother, friend, daughter, sister, lifelong learner, wife and dedicated public servant, was called home on September 23, 2011. She was preceded in death by her husband John Hannigan who passed on January 29th of this year.

Vera Hannigan lived life boldly and well, setting a high standard for public involvement and service. If the ultimate question concerning each of our lives were to be posed as to whether the world is a better place BECAUSE we were here, those of us fortunate to have known her would join in staunch support with a resounding "YES !". Thank you Vera!
And thank you Mom.
