Verna Clara Hanson, age 64, of Forsyth, Missouri, went home to her heavenly father on August 11, 2025. She entered this life on September 21, 1960, in Neodesha, Kansas, the daughter of William and Lura (Stafford) Hanson who preceded her in death.
With an enduring faith, Verna was devoted to her Lord and Savior. She loved all things Kansas City Chiefs and adored her dogs: Ginger and Lucy. Verna enjoyed making jewelry, putting together puzzles, and singing. Her love, laughter, and kindness will never be forgotten.
Verna is survived by her two brothers: William Hanson Jr. and Cris Hanson; sister, Renita Hanson; many nieces and nephews; dogs: Ginger and Lucy; and dear friend, Lynda Raven.
A private family gathering on Zoom will be held at a later date. Arrangements and cremation are under the direction of Cremations of the Ozarks.
