Verona Schattner was an inspiration to all who knew her in the church. A terrific role model with a kind gentle hand when it came to instructing on all things Sacred within Altar Guild in Gloria Dei. She had a keen eye for detail and a sparkle in her eye when things done to her liking. She was a very unassuming humble person who delighted in the smallest of gifts and kindnesses. I know that Verona is now preparing the way for us as she always has for when we meet again. God's peace be with her family. She will be missed. - Posted by: Kim Dorn (Friend from Gloria Dei) on: May 15, 2014
