I previously worked at Chapel Pointe as an activities aide. Verna was always a willing person
in our activities as she was able! I appreciated that. Very nice lady - fun to talk to.

My parents (Lee and Nellie Sunday) were very good friends and neighbors of Verna and Guy Shultz when they
lived in Boiling Springs. Verna was especially kind and helpful to my mother when my dad was ill and later died in 1997. She
remained a good friend over the years. My deepest sympathy to Nancy, Judy and the entire Shultz family.
