Vera was an amazing cook, just the thought of her Sunday pot roast would make your mouth water. If you needed something mended Vera was your go to gal. If you wanted something made Vera could whip it out with her sewing machine. She had her pilot's license, and soloed with John Kleek. One of her favorite things to do was, have her son Steve pull her across Fort Cobb Lake at the break of dawn. When the water was like a sheet of glass. She could water ski forever.
