Susie, I'm so sorry to hear about Vera. I loved your parents, both as members of Central and as neighbors. It's hard to lose the older generation--wise and kind, just as Vera and Grant were. Love to you and your family,

God's blessings as you farewell your lovely mother and grandmaother,Vera. We've missed both Grant and Vera so much at Central. And, Tom had so many memories of them from North Dakota,too. Vera and Verna were some of the kids he drove to school in the olden days. Love and prayers, Betty Johnson
