La Verne enjoyed dressing up and took great pride in keeping up her glamorous appearance, always making sure she looked her best. She enjoyed music of all kinds and loved western dancing. She loved to spend her free time gardening, going to the lake, and canning various types of food. La Verne also enjoyed embroidering, and was an avid bowler, receiving many pins to commemorate bowling a perfect 300 game. She enjoyed bird watching and spent many years camping with the Millers.

La Verne was an incredibly hard worker, building her own house with great detail. She hated to sit still and always kept busy, never afraid to try anything new.

La Verne will be remembered as having a joyful disposition, spreading her love and compassion to all those around her. She will be greatly missed by anyone who had the pleasure of crossing her path.
