Nancy L. Huss wrote a sympathy message

“Mary Sue and family, I am just today learning about Verna's death. I am so very sorry for your loss. Your family were wonderful neighbors when we all lived in Neponset many years ago and Verna was my go to person to keep up on all that was Neponset. She was a wonderful lady and so vital for her age. My brother Jim and I had a fun visit with her the summer of 2019 when we stopped to see her and ended up going out to lunch. Deepest sympathy. Chuck and Nancy Thorp Huss 1-24-2021”
