Angel in the lives of so many, I hope to share just a glimpse of what we see when we look at or think of you. Mommy, words are hard to find when trying to express your true impact in our lives and in our hearts. none seem strong enough to describe the great love and appreciation we have for you. But I will do my best to color your story in the best of my ability as I remember what I love most about it. Born  3rd of 7 children Vera was a little Mama that never minded getting dirty climbing trees, and catching snakes. Making friends with any critter that would let her She helped care for her siblings and made the best of the life she grew up with. at 14 she married a man of 30 (My Daddy), bacame stepmom to 2 children not much younger than she(Ben & Sherry) and had her first child (Kevin) at 15. She had her 2nd child (Laura) at age 17. a very small preemie born at only 2lb.12oz. I (Vera-Marie) was her third child then she gave birth to 3 boys after me. the first being Joshua, then she sadly had to bury my brother Andy, and a year later came the most spoiled of us all, Zachary. She devoted her life to us and over the years many others. This includes her late sister's children that her mother, Grace took in to raise, Jerry and Beth. I see them as siblings and not any different than the others I have named because they were treated as such. (to be continued another day)
