  • Verla M. Rich, “Grandma Kaye”, age 94, died on Sunday, March 14, 2021, in Parker, Colorado. She went peacefully in the presence of her two daughters and her son-in-law. She was born in Pingree, Idaho on December 28, 1926.

    She and her sister, Mary Jane, rode their horse to school every day as school children. She started out as a nurse and ended up as a cosmetologist. She is survived by six children and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

    Grandma Kaye was loved by everyone she met. Her charm, quick wit and funny, spontaneous rhymes were trademarks of her conversations. She never met a stranger without turning them into an instant friend. Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren adored her.

    Guestbook/Condolences

    Dear Margo and Family,
    What a beautiful service for our dear Kaye. Your mom made an impact on 3 generations in my family. She always sent wonderful cards to my grandmother, “To the Beautiful Iva”! And my mother cherished you both and loved to visit! We are very blessed to have known Kaye and know her presence will always be with you.
    Love, Piper and Jeff
