I have many fond memories of Verna when I worked at Rosewood Nursing Center.I worked there when her mother was there also.They shared a very special mother daughter bond.Some of the special memories I have are when I would feed Verna and she would joke about me and her getting married and having 10 kids....Yes she said 10 kids,and when I fixed her some gumbo one night and fed it to her,she was so excited.Ill miss Verna alot.
