My heart goes out to the Potter family, Vernice's children and grandson are sorely grieved with her loss. She was full of life and we should all take example of her positive attitude. In loving memory,

I will never forget Vernice, we planned a surprise dinner for Christmas once, at her Grandson Brian's home. It turned out great and everyone had fun. Mostly, I remember her during her years as Mrs. Potter. She liked crafts and showed me how to weave a chair with a crochet hook! I bought how-to books from her yard sale. I will always remember her being full of life. We should all cultivate her positive attitude.
In Loving Memory,

V: IS FOR VINTAGE, LIKE A FINE BOTTLE OF WINE,
E: IS FOR ENTHUSIASTIC: YOU LOVE DANCING , EVEN WATCHING FROM THE SIDELINE!
R: IS FOR RAVISHING, YOUR BEAUTY RUNS DEEP,
N: IS FOR NICE, THE KIND OF FRIEND ONE IS SURE TO KEEP.
I: IS FOR INTELLIGENT, YOU'RE A SMART ONE,
C: IS FOR CAREER, BEING A LEGAL SECRETARY YOU FOUND TO BE FUN,
E: IS FOR EARNEST, YOUR SINCERITY SHINES LIKE THE SUN!
For someone I never knew, Rest In Peace!
