Verna and Soup lived in St. Ignatius until they built a house south of town where they raised their family on the farm. Verna worked tirelessly alongside Soup with the ranching chores. She had fond memories of the many children she knew while driving the school bus for almost 30 years. In the eyes of her family, she was famous for her gardening, canning, and embroidering.

Verna dedicated her life to serving and caring for her family with patience and loving-kindness. Her family was most important in her life. Verna lived a life filled with a sense of humor, always exhibiting grace, never forgetting simple gestures like please and thank you. Verna was a pioneer that epitomizes what a gracious person strives for today: she had grit and a love for all. Her perseverance led her to never shy away from hard work - as exhibited by her bountiful garden, Sunday dinners (often following a day of hard farm work), and dedication to her family. Verna loved life and will be missed by all who love her. Due to the worldwide pandemic, a private interment has taken place at The Krantz Memorial Cemetery. A celebration of life honoring Verna will be announced in the future.
