Vera was one of the most loving, caring, compassionate and supportive individuals to anyone and everyone she met. Throughout her beautiful life Vera opened her home and heart to many people. Vera greatest joy in life was without a doubt her six beautiful grandchildren. She loved spending time with her “grandbabies” and spoiling them. Anytime she spoke about them she would light up and loved to show them off. Vera’s whole life was dedicated to her family. She will be remembered for her kind heart and devotion to her family. Vera will be deeply missed by all who loved her.
