I worked with Vel at Motorola. She had so much class and dignity. What a lovely woman. I remember her fondly. I haven't seen her for probably 30 years or more, but she was a person you never forget. My condolences to her family.
Sincerely, Sandy Schaefer

A lovely lady and friend from Scottsdale Bible Chuck a few years ago. We remember her smile and the good chats we had before the church service started. She and her husband were some of the first people we met at SBC as we sat behind them during many services. We hold on to fond memories of Vel over the years. Sending our sympathy; yet rejoicing she is with her Savior.
