To me, she was Grammy Sip. I only met her a handful of times, but every time was full of love and laughter. Her energy was beautiful. She absolutely adored my best friend and her mother; they were quite the trio. I am so sorry for the family’s loss, but know that they have many wonderful memories to cherish.
We are very sorry for the family at this time, Something you never want to read about. RIP and cherish the family memories. The Lippert Family
Verona has run the race and WON her victory! Blessed be the name of the Lord
I’ve known Verona my whole life. I was sad to hear she was ill. Then stunned to hear she had passed.
My condolences to Lisa, Bret and the whole family. It’s a great loss to everyone. She was an extraordinary lady and personally one of my favorites.
My advice is to cherish the time you had with her and be grateful that God blessed us with such a beautiful person in our lives.
To Bret and Lisa,
Michele and I want to express our deepest sympathy to you and your families on the passing of your Mom. When I think of her, I think of that great and frequent laugh and the corresponding big smile. I have many fond memories of times our families spent together when we were growing up and I know that my parents cherished their close friendship with your Mom and Dad. I am sorry I can’t be there to express my condolences in person and I know my parents are devastated that, do to health issues, they won’t be there either. You guys, your family and your Mom will be in our prayers.
Lisa and Family –
We are so terribly saddened for your loss. Verona was like a second mother to Christy and always welcomed Cary with open arms and a huge kiss. She was a wonderful person who was always enlightening with an infectious smile and warming personality. Family was so near and dear to her, she always lite up when talking about them, and she embraced her friends with an open and warm heart.
We will hold you close in our thoughts and offer our heartfelt support and friendship as you endure this difficult time. We will always carry the fondest memories of Verona in our heart and feel so blessed that we were able to see her often in the past few years. May she Rest In Peace with the lord. ALL OUR LOVE
