Laverne was a strong, independent woman who was loved by everyone she met. No person was a stranger and baby smiles made her day. She was an avid reader and loved to make all kinds of crafts. She enjoyed time spent with her family, both near and far. She enjoyed traveling, reaching her goal to hit all 50 states. She will be remembered fondly, always.
