Betty and Louis Strauss and family had the privilege of knowing and loving Verna and her family for generations of time. Her backyard and ours were back- to- back. For many years, Linda and her sister Gail took piano lessons from dear Verna. You can cringe at what she may have often heard from our little fingers.

Hi Jennifer,
I am sorry to read about this. I remember your mother as an extremely friendly person and always willing to stop my mother or I to chat for a few minutes. She was a great person. Take care.

Verna brought so much joy to my life. Life with her has never been a dull moment. She always filled my days with excitement and love. She always had a sparkle in her beautiful blue eyes and a radiant smile on her face that just always warmed my heart whenever I was near her or was just thinking of her. I am truly going to miss this truly amazing and wonderful LADY that just filled my heart with joy. Knowing her has been an honor and blessing.
Verna , I will never forget you and you will...

Verna was near and dear to my heart.
My Shabbat began every Friday evening when Verna in all her finery entered the synagogue..
So many wonderful memories.
Verna reciting the story of Jonah each and every Yom Kippur.
Her strumming the ukulele while singing "I wish I were sixteen again" at talent night was a show stopper..
I will miss her.
Thank you for inspiring me
