Verna graduated from Weatherford High School in 1950 and was a homemaker most of her life. She was a longtime member of Union Baptist Church of Springtown, until joining North Side Baptist Church of Weatherford in 2000. 

In her younger years, she enjoying teaching and working with children. She and Bill enjoyed gardening for many years and always shared the fruits of their labor with many family and friends. After her husband Bill passed away, she was actively involved with the Homebound Ministry, Women Ministering to Women, Evergreen, and Foundation Singers. She was deeply burdened for those who didn't know her Jesus, and she would spend hours studying His Word every day. Each Sunday at North Side Baptist Church, you would find her in the place she loved serving--greeting everyone at the door as she distributed bulletins to people as they made their way into church. 

She loved playing Chicken Foot with "The Girls" every Saturday, and prior to the pandemic, she played with a group of sweet ladies on Game Day each week. She treasured time spent with her grandkids and had a special relationship with each of them.
