Vea was born and grew up on a farm in Pillager MN. She had many stories of her time on the farm and her chores. She admired the hard work her Mom and Dad did and she had the same work ethic. She worked for many years at Mercy Hospital in Materials Management, she loved working with the staff and spoke of her job frequently. One of her favorite things back in her younger days was dancing the jitterbug with her husband, but just being with her family was all she ever wanted.
