I enjoyed working with Laverne during our BREMCO days. I worked several ice storms with her.

Words can never express my personal love for Laverne. She taught me so very much as a young Christian girl. She has always had a very special place in my heart and always will. When it was announced in worship service Sunday that she had died, I cried like a baby and then went home and cried all afternoon. I found myself remembering all the things she had me memorize when she taught me in bible study for some eight to ten years:

The beatitudesi
The twelve apostles
The second chapter of Acts
The first chapter of Psalms

Laverne, I know you are in paradise and I will never forget what you did for me!
