A farmer and a man of the land with a kind heart and a warm gentle hand. I remember when you opened your home as a place to dwell. But most importantly, you opened your heart as well. You would never criticize, complain or angrily yelp, instead you were always there to give a hand and willing to help. For Aunt Bernice, a kind act or word of comfort you would lend, as a loving husband and caregiver right up to the end. Being at peace with your bags packed and ready you then became still as we all know. The Lord came down and put his arms around you and said it was your time to go. So now we pray as you are in that much better place, that you enjoy happiness and the glory of God's grace.
Survivors include nephews, Lee Newtson of Elburn, IL, Ken (Chris) Newtson of Las Cruces, NM, Ronald (Marj) Johnson of Morris, IL, Gene (Elizabeth) Johnson of Newark, IL, Wilbur (Sharon) Johnson of Aurora, IL, Harold Stein of Naperville, IL; a niece, Jacqueline Dimmick of Ottawa, IL; one sister, Charlotte (Russell) Johnson of Morris, IL and his sister in-law, Naomi Vatland of Newark, IL.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Bernice on March 25, 1999 and two brothers, Orrin and Merton.
Funeral services for LaVerne will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, July 1, 2002 at the Newark Lutheran Church. Rev. Charles Sampson will officiate. Burial will be in the Millington-Newark Cemetery.
