Thank you, Milton
Thank you, Judy. Everyone commented on her sweet smile
Vera was one of the sweetest women I have had the pleasure of knowing. She ALWAYS had a smile and a hug when ever we saw each other.
A wonderful person from a good family. I was fortunate to know this wonderful family since I was from Monett also. Her brother, Gordon was a student athlete at Arkansas U. He was an outstanding student and football ball player. He won an award in the late 40s for escorting the referees to safety after the game with SMU when Doak Walker scored to win the game when AU had a penalty on last play of game. The AU fans became hostile. Vera & I were excited to be reunited when I joined Shell in 1962. She was a precious lady.
Thank you, sweet friends
What a beautiful lady. Although I didn't get a chance to meet her in person, I heard many stories about her from her daughter Susan. She has left behind a beautiful legacy. Hugs and prayers go out to her family, love Sam and Tima Sansone
