My sincere condolences to your family. My dad so enjoyed his longtime friendship of Verle and in the last several years of dads life he always looked forward to the games of bridge they had together at Park Centre. When I was with dad and we ran into Verle, it was a time to smile. They had great exchanges and before it was over we were all laughing! I am thankful that you were blessed with so many years together! Sincerely, Nancy (Birkenholtz) LeBlanc

the first summer i lived away from home at 19 i was writing a postcard to my grandmother. all i could remember was the house number and zip code. it had been a long standing joke that verle read all the postcards. so at the bottom of the card i added, “verle, please see that my grandma gets this card.” she did!
