Joan, Kim, Deon, and Chad,
I’m so sorry to hear about this. My best memories of LaVerl and Joan, was when we were building our cabins. I remember when Verl helped us install our floor. He was very well skilled in construction, always seemed to be full of energy, and possess a positive attitude. My parents and I really enjoyed your company. I regret that I’ve been out of touch with you for so long.
How fortunate for our family to be Verl and Joan’s neighbors for many years in South Jordan. They loved their family and were wonderful neighbors. May you all be comforted and feel peace at this time. With Love, Kendra
My heart aches to hear this news, my thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. The world was a better place with Uncle Verl, he was so kind, generous and loving to everyone he met. He always made me feel important and had me giggling all the time. I will miss him dearly.
All my love,
Christy Ricketson
I just saw this, I'm deeply shocked & saddened at Verl's passing. Ive missed his kind smiling face at Superior Buck these past few years, he was always so helpful & friendly. My sincere condolences to his entire family. Rest in peace "Bud"
