Her enjoyments in life included dancing, listening to George Jones Country music, gardening, playing cards, bingo, puzzle books, camping with Maurice, and mostly being at home. Veronica's day would not be complete without her making strong coffee, drinking her soda (sodi) and relaxing in the kitchen with the deck door open bringing in the sunshine. She looked forward to the late-night phone conversations with her sisters and family and snacking on cookies and ice cream. Undoubtably, one of Veronica's biggest enjoyments in her life was spending time with her grandson "Joshee". They shared a unique bond that will forever be special.
