I loved Vera so much. It was such a pleasure to take care of her during my employment at Elmcroft. I remember my last day at work. She took my face in her hands and told me she loved me as tears came to her eyes. I promised her I would visit and I did. She also called me 2 days prior to her passing. I'm so thankful I got the chance to tell her I loved her. I will miss her terribly.

Vera always put a smile on my face whenever she and Verna came into AAA to book trips on our motor coach tours. She warmed my heart and I feel very fortunate to have had the pleasure to know Vera. Please accept my sympathy to all.
