We had the pleasure of living next door to Ken and Verna for many years. She was like a beloved grandmother to our daughters, Kalyn and Kayce, and always had a Halloween treat ready for them. We will miss our dear friend...she was one terrific lady. --John and Debbie Petzold

I am so sorry for your loss. Verna was a wonderful lady. She will be missed by many. I will be out of town the day of the service, but you will all be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless you and help you through this difficult time. She will always be with you in your thoughts and memories.
Love you all.

I know this is a difficult time, as we "let go" of loved ones. Yet, we know that they are in God's heaven, and no longer suffer or feel hurts and pain. I will be with you and family in prayer and in spirit - as I have already committed plans the day of the funeral. Know God's strong loving arms around you, as you say good by to a family member. Gloria, you have been a great help with my family, and I pray that I can be that for you too. Take some time for you, please. Truly, Sarah and Gary Armour
