My prayers to Laverne's family and loved ones. She had an infectious smile and was always so pleasant. RIH Laverne
My Prayers are with you at this time. Laverne was such a beautiful person. Rest beautiful, Rest.
I was blessed to attend grade school through high school with Laverne. She was one of my sweetest classmates. Rest in Heaven, Laverne, until we meet again in eternity.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
My deepest condolences to LaVerne's family and friends. Indeed she was a dear friend and sweet classmate -- since second grade! She always had a generous heart and was a fun person -- always. In second grade, all the little girls had shoulder purses, except me. She would come to school and say to me, 'would you like to carry my purse today?' Oh, how grand that would make me feel! LaVerne and I were the last two contestants in the sixth-grade spelling bee! Her grace and sweetness continued through high school and no doubt beyond. Know that she shall be missed and remembered with fondness. May the grace of the Lord be with you all.
LaVerne was always so lovely and friendly. I considered her a True kindred soul. I always enjoyed seeing her throughout the day and wherever we'd pass throughout the building on Wolf Ledges. Someone, truly, you could trust!

Gone too soon! I worked with LaVerne at the Akron Health Department. She was the nicest person you'd ever want to meet! The last time I saw her she was living on W. Exchange St. I often thought about her over the years. LaVerne's loved ones are in my prayers! Godspeed LaVerne!

To the Rivers Family, Laverne and I go all the way back to grade school. We graduated from Buchtel together. Whenever I would run into Laverne, it was if we hadn't missed a beat. Laverne was always a nice person with a beautiful smile. She will be missed. May God wrap his arms around you and give you comfort during this time
To Laverne’s family: She was a light of joy to work with at the City of Akron. She certainly lifted my spirits on bad days at the office. I’m truly sorry to see this. I hope her memory comforts you in your time of grief. Tracy and Jim Harill
