So many fond memories of Vesta and Guil working on community theater - she was a hard worker, "mother" and friend to all ...and her cookies were the best :)

Vesta was such a special lady. I feel honored to have known her. I spent many happy times with her when we were members of the Book Review Club. I also remember the delicious pretzels she made.

I had the pleasure of getting to know both Vesta and Guil through theater. We worked on numerous productions together. Under my direction she performed in the Octette Bridge Club and was absolutely dynamic as the eldest sister of the eight...We all loved her winning smile, warm hugs and joyful laugh..greeting us and making every one feel special. She never had an unkind word to say about anyone. Vesta was loved by so many. She and Guil can now waltz and laugh in each others arms. God speed...
