    It’s going to be so hard to say goodbye to you my sweet friend Verna! We have known each other for over 45 years. Your friendship has carried me through many rough times. I could always count on you to be there for me. I know that we will see each other again, but I already miss you so much. I see you in your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren! They reflect the love and family bond you and Wayne instilled in them. I know they all make you proud. Despite the health struggles you endured, you remained your family’s strength and support. You made your family, friends and strangers feel special. As a result of your kindness you have many best friends, or Besties, as you called us. I thank God that I was a part of that group. Until we met again, I promise I will help watch over your family to the best of my ability! I Love You!
