Dear Family,

May your memories of Laverne, as mother, sister, aunt, or cousin, bring you an enduring sense of comfort, warmth, and peace in the days ahead. As so aptly expressed by William Wordsworth in his poem Ode of Intimations of Immortality, "Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not; rather find strength in what remains behind".

Wishing Laverne and all her precious loved ones the most special blessings today, tomorrow, and always.

Love, your cousins, Modestine Rogers, Barbara Johnston, and Mary Rogers
