Verner Emil Lau, the son of Emil and Alma Ella (Haberkamp) Lau, was born October 15, 1920, on a farm south of Klemme. He was confirmed at Immanuel Re-formed Church in Klemme and graduated from Klemme High School in 1938. After high school, he farmed with his father. From 1944 to 1946, Verner served his country in the U.S. Army during and after World War II. During this time he was in the 822nd Military Police, which was charged with maintaining law and order in occupied Berlin. Following his honorable discharge he returned to Klemme to farm with his father and brother. On June 4, 1958, he married Velma Larsen at the Titonka Methodist Church. To this union two daughters were born, Barbara and Debra. Verner and Velma continued to farm the home place near Klemme until retiring from farming and moving into Garner in 1988. In August of 2002, they moved to Prairie View Apartments in Garner. His great joy in his life was his three grandchildren. Verner's love of children was always evident as he played ball with his nieces and nephews and gave them rides on his horse. Verner was a member of Zion Evangelical and Reform-ed Church in Garner, the Adam-Schaefer American Legion Post No. 625 in Klemme and the Klemme Lions Club. He is survived by his wife, Velma, of Garner; two daughters, Barbara Burket and husband, Greg, of Minburn and Debra Dunn and husband, Jess, of Grimes; grandchildren, Mikaela Sue Dunn, Blake Ronald Dunn and Heidi Marie Burket; a brother, Paul Lau and wife, Phyllis, of Garner; a brother-in-law, Richard Happel of Alexander; a sister-in-law, Ramona Lau Schmidt and husband, Marvin, of Ventura; six nephews; and four nieces.
