Cousin Vera & Family,

Although I've only been in the family a short time, my love for Vera was very strong. She was my kind of a "lady", tough, never complaining, and almost never tiring. She's certainly in a much better place now, and we'll all be there to embrace you one day, Cuz. Love and Blessing to you all, and may God Bless and keep you in His wonderful arms, GOD BLESS, Judy Payne

Aunt Vera, I will miss not being able to pick up the phone and call you. Even when I knew you where in such pain you never complained, you always asked how all of us were. Well, you are in a better place now. I love you and I will miss you. Love, Terri

I can just see them sitting on the shores of heaven(Mom and Aunt Vera) talking with Jesus safe and secure in his love.And somehow I know if you could you'd let me know, that you're doing fine and it doesn't hurt anymore, and if you could talk to me, I know you'd tell me- Wish you were here it's such a beautiful place wish you were here nothing but clear sunny day's it never rains and no one complains and we haven't seen a tear we're having a great time wish you were here.
