Vera loved sewing, and made many of the clothes her daughters wore, was an excellent cook and enjoyed canning things from her garden. She enjoyed the beauty of her flowers, especially her roses. Vera and Wendell so enjoyed going to all the events her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were involved in.

She lived a wonderful life, loving her Lord, her church, her friends and especially her family. Vera served the Lord faithfully all her life; and set a wonderful example of a Proverbs 31 woman. As such her family can rise up and call her Blessed! All the family was blessed through her faithfulness.
