She enjoyed attending the Wheatland’s monthly Jamborees held in the Cabin and donated one of her accordians to Wheatland’s instrument loan program. Verna’s children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren have all been involved with Wheatland. Verna was featured in Wheatland’s 2000 “Sharing the Legacy” project that spotlighted elder artists from central Michigan.
