My heartfelt condolences on the loss of Vera. Thank you for letting her be a part of my life as one of the "little kids" of the Octo Children. I loved her for her joy and laughter, even as a small child. We shared a quirky sense of humor. Even at the last Octo meeting I was honored to attend while home on a visit from Saudi Arabia, she sat next to me and said, "Just wait, I'll say something and get in trouble." And she did and the other ladies looked at her silently with a "Now, Vera!" look on their faces. "See what I mean?" she said to me. We laughed. It happens to me all the time in the same way. My daughters enjoy that rare, wry humor and tell me few others understand it. "Oh, but Vera did!" I tell them. I will miss her. My favorite Octo (shh -- don't tell anyone).##imported-begin##Janice Roberts Reinhardt##imported-end##

IAN & DUNCAN & FAMILY- We are very sorry to hear of Lady Vera's passing on July 4th., 2006. My folks and family enjoyed a special friendship with all of you for close to 70 years, or so, and now I hear that the THIRD generation is even in touch. As a kid when you came to visit us in Orting, I always got a kick out of what GOOD friends our parents were, especially when enjoying "Orting Water" (Gin & Bubble UP). What fond memories. May Vera rest in peace, and always be remembered for her sweet and kind heart.##imported-begin##Rob & Connie Wekell##imported-end##

Mr. McMillan & Family,
Vera was a beautiful and charming lady with a ready smile and sharp wit. My wife Diane and Vera always enjoyed looking for the full moon each month. We feel extremely blessed to have made her acquaintance during her stay at Heartwood.
You have our deepest sympathies...##imported-begin##Mike & Diane Foster##imported-end##

Dear Ian and Family
Vera was such a warm, friendly and interesting lady to visit at Heartwood and I enjoyed her so much.
We had many joyful conversations and I told her she was like a "special aunt" to me. She will be missed greatly.
Love, Donna K.##imported-begin##Donna Kennedy##imported-end##

Dear Ian and Family,
I was just thinking of Vera the other day and remembering the fun times we had in Sweet Adelines. Her wonderful smile would light up her face and you knew she loved to perform. I also think of the conversations we three shared on the occasions when we were together. You both were wonderful role models for living a good life.
Vera was a very special person and she will be missed by many. My thoughts and prayers are with you now.
Sincerely,
Dottie Dedrick##imported-begin##Dottie Dedrick##imported-end##

Dear Duncan, Julie & Family,
I just read my morning paper and want to reach out with my condolances for the loss of your mother, mother-in-law and grandmother. My mother was born in July of 1913 also and I lost her in 1975 and my father in 1988. I know the loss you are experiencing! You can be grateful for all the years you were able to share and your wonderful family that is there for you at this difficult time. My sincere sympathy to all of you.
Sincerely, Karen##imported-begin##Karen VanDruff##imported-end##
