Verna lived a happy energetic life, golfing, curling and socializing. When she bought her car named Jenny, it had to be a Wednesday car, any other day was unacceptable.

The family would like to thank the staff from the Prescott-Russell Residence for the excellent care and attention they gave to Verna throughout her years there.

For those who wish, a donation to Friends of Feral Cats Hawkesbury would be greatly appreciated by Verna who was well known for her love of animals.
