Honorary pallbearers are Mike Broz, Ron Broz, Bill Layne, Jim Layne, Marty Layne, Aaron Schneider, Mitch Schneider, Neil Shardlow and Paul Shardlow. Vera was born in Loudwater, England on December 31, 1932 to James S. and Frances May (Collett) Storry. She grew up in the lush green landscape of the Thames valley. Vera matured quickly as a young girl due to the advent of World War II and "The Blitz" on England during which her father served in the Homeguard. She attended school and upon graduation at 14 years old, began her career in a fine clothing store. Vera met her husband, Leonard, in England during his tour of duty in the Air Force, and they were united in marriage on April 27, 1957. After a tour in Germany, they returned to South Dakota to raise their family. While in Yankton, Vera worked at Yankton College. She was often asked to speak to students regarding her experiences overseas and with four children in the Scotland School District she often volunteered her time with school functions. She served on the Advisory Board of Directors for the Scotland Good Samaritan Society prior to becoming an employee in the Activities Department where she worked for 12 years and shared her love of knitting and craftwork with residents. Vera's personal interests included reading, crossword puzzles, knitting, gardening and international foods. Her special interest was always her family that she loved with deep devotion. She was especially proud of her children for their military service and for obtaining their university degrees. Her children were very proud of their mother for becoming a U.S. Citizen in July of 2003. Vera is survived by her husband, Leonard Layne Jr. of Scotland; three children: Clinton A. (Raelene) Layne of rural Tabor, Leslie Genimatas of Scotland and Leo Scott Layne of Scotland; two sisters, Poppy M. (Charles) Cooper of Wondiligong, Australia and Diane Shardlow of Long Eaton, England; and many nieces and nephews. Vera was preceded in death by her parents; son, Howard V. Layne, grandson, Clinton A. Layne II; and a brother, Brian Storry.
