Verna was a wonderful greeter, who welcomed people to our church. She was our lovely ray of sunshine with her beautiful smile and cheery attitude! So special and loving, she always made me feel so welcomed, lifting my spirit. I have missed her greatly since she's been sick, and will continue missing her every Sunday. I'm praising God for her life, and that I was privileged to know her. Our church prayer ministry team and I will be praying for her family and close friends.
Sending love and hugs,
