She was a fiesty woman with a lot of love and a lot of faith.
She had a curiosity towards angels, and now she is one of them.
When I feel sad about not seeing her again on earth, I think about the many family members that greeted her as she entered the spirit world--her husband, son, brothers and sister, parents--and the happiness she would have felt at seeing all of them. I am grateful that she never has to be alone again.
She was very particular about how things were done. This used to really frustrate me, but as I got older I learned to laugh along with her idiosyncrasies and I loved her for them.
This past Christmas was special as our whole family was together. When she grumbled about the salad dressing or something of the sort, Jeff and I would just look at each other and we would start to laugh, and she would start to chuckle too with her characteristic half smile. I think she realized she was being silly at times.
We're grateful that she had a sharp mind her whole life, as well as good health.
I look forward to seeing her again one day and telling my children about their great-grandma Vera.

Hey Jeff and Lynn, we miss you guys here in Utah! Looks like all is well with you. We'll keep in touch.
Sorry to hear about your Grandma, Lynn. We are all so blessed to have the gospel and to have an understanding of this life and the next. Grandparents are very special, and it's great to know we'll see them again. Jason's Grandpa passed away in September so the whole process is still fresh in our minds. Our thoughts and prayers are with you guys. We miss you!!
Love,
Heather
