LaVerne was full of faith and wisdom which carried her far in life…almost 91 years.

LaVerne believed in loving the Lord our God with all her heart, soul and mind.  She loved read in her Bible, praying & going to church. She  was a hard worker who did not slack.  She always went above and beyond in every aspect of her life: caring for and helping family & friends, cleaning, cooking, canning, freezing, fishing, and gardening, even public work.  Her heart was in loving her children, and her joy was her grandchildren, plus great grandchildren.  LaVerne and Albert enjoyed Gospel singing so they would travel far and near to hear one.  They also loved attending revivals, homecomings and attending old country churches.
