The Calumet Area Leathercrafters Guild wishes to express our deepest sympathies to the family of Veronica McSween. She was an important part of our leather guild, and will be greatly missed. She always had a smile and kind word for everyone. Veronica encouraged everyone to do the best they could, and to be the best person they could be. She was always there to help when needed, and was always there to support the guild, and all members of it. We thank Veronica for being a part of our lives, and allowing us to be a part of hers.
May I offer my deepest condolences to the family of my dear friend, Veronica. I will greatly miss her, and truly regret that I will not be able to attend her service to say goodbye. She was one of the very best people I have known. She 'adopted' me as her "brother" in the leather guild. We would always playfully pick on each other when we were together, and others would tell us to stop our picking. We would just look at each other, say that's what brothers and sisters do, and start laughing. She was always there to be a cheering section when needed, and to advise me when needed. She was thoughtful and caring, and always thinking of others, and always had a smile to share. Veronica, I miss you, I'll never forget you, and I'll see you on the other side, so please save me a spot at the table.
