Veronica Granderson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 15, 2016.
Veronica Granderson, 36, a short time resident of Las Vegas, NV, departed on April 12th, 2016.

She was born July 19th, 1979 in Elgin, Illinois to Phillip Granderson and Philippa Banton. She was raised by her grandparents, Elva Adderley (grandmother) and Orietta Gilbert (great-great grandmother, whom precedes her in her passing).

She found her life partner, Ricky Bussie, at the age of 18 and the two were blessed with four beautiful children; Rickia, Makayla, Jeryimiah, and Baby Ricky (whom precedes her in her passing).

Veronica received an Associate's Degree in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Veronica loved socializing, partying, good food, and spending quality time with her children and family. Her mother, Philippa, was the apple of her eye. She was such a fun and very exciting woman. She was very phenomenal.

Veronica was very proud of her brother, Willie Towner III, serving in the US Army. She was a strong believer in family values.

She is survived by her mother, Philippa Banton; her father, Phillip Granderson; her brother, Willie Towner III; her grandmother, Elva Adderley; her three children, Rickia, Makayla, and Jeryimiah; four nieces; four uncles, Mark, Anthony, Wilfred, and Niven; a special aunt, Carmen Preister; a special sister, TT (Theresa Jackson); and a host of relatives and friends.

Our family gives a special thanks to Derrick and Shondra for being with Veronica through her final days.

Memorial Service will be held at 4:00 PM Monday, April 18th, 2016 at Palm Eastern Mortuary in Las Vegas.

When I got the call... I was in shock..still I am. Our childhood memories are by far the best ever! From the laughs, staying up late, getting in trouble, and making music videos was the best. I know that you are now in No Pain and worry free! I WISH we would of had time to have those laughs now as we are older . But we will meet again.
Love always
Michele

My condolences to the family. God doesn't give us more than we can bare. Good makes no mistakes. It may be hard to understand why right now, but hopefully one day it will all make sense. This is a hard time but a time you must face. My prayers go out to Philipa, Willy, and her 3 amazing kids. I am here to offer my support in every way shape and form. It's not going to be an easy road ahead, but a road you'll have to take. Take things one day at a time. It never gets easy but you learn to accept it as an every day reality. I've never lost a child, but I've lost a sibling so I too am on this bumpy road. God bless you all and I'm
asking God to cover you all with the blood of Jesus.

I sit here and think about our childhood from riding bikes to jumping rope in the middle of the street to family vacations to the Dell's to staying up late at night giggling and talking about everything like young girls do. We went through a lot together and even though we grew up and lived in different places we were sisters and we are sisters we still kept in touch always. Be that guiding light for your children from now and forever. Be their strength be their protector cover them with your love. I know you are the life of the party dancing in heaven but know that God and everyone else has your children

Love you big sis
Love Reese

I met you back in 2010. From then on you and your kids has been a big part of my family. You have always been there for me through it all. I've been there for you through it all up until you were called home. My family and I have so much love for you, your kids, family and friends. There will forever be a void in my life without you here. I'm going to miss our daily conversations, the mutual love and respect. May God and you watch over your kids and family.
