Vera Zohner

March 12, 1940 - December 29, 2022

Vera passed away at the age of 82 from a long valiant 4-year battle with Leukemia.

Born in California and migrated to Colorado at age 2, due to her mother passing away from illness. She was raised by her Aunt & Uncle, Lena and Glen Humphreys in Grand Junction. Vera graduated from Central High School. She continued to be active in class reunions. She met Carl Zohner in school and they were married in August 1960. They were married for 62 years. After High School, Vera pursued a nursing career at St. Mary's Hospital. She had other jobs including a cattle company, a clothing merchandiser, and a manager of ladies wear for Woolco. Hobbies she enjoyed were ceramics, cake decorating, camping, fishing, (watching) Rockies, Broncos, and bull riding. She loved crocheting, especially blankets and gave many away to organizations. She was a member of Clifton Christian Church.

Surviving family members: Husband, Carl Zohner; daughter, Michelle Barnes; son in law, Dennis Barnes (deceased); Granddaughter, Lindsey Barnes (Broc Ahrens); Grandson, Tucker and (Nicole) Barnes; Great Granddaughter, Elliott Grace Ahrens; and "soon to arrive" Great Grandson of Tucker & Nicole.

Being neighbors with Carl and Vera for many years; we have many memories. I treasured our time working on the lateral and getting to know one another better. Vera loved her family so much and couldn´t wait to spoil her great grand babies. You can rest now, Vera. God bless your family.
We will miss you.

I met Vera working with her daughter and my friend Michelle at Alpine Bank. I could always get a smile from Vera when she came to the bank. God be with your family until you meet again. Love, Coco (Coca)
