Verna Lee passed away on April 10th, 2025 in Fort Worth, Texas. She was born on September 27th, 1947 in Harrisonville, Missouri and moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico as a child where she graduated high school at Sandia High School and then went on to work for the University of New Mexico Hospital.
Verna moved to Modesto, California in 1991 working as an office manager for neurosurgeon, Dr. Lee Kesterson, for five years and then moved to Fort Worth to be with family where she worked at the Center for Neurological Disorders until she retired.
