Obituary of Elvira Herrle

Died peacefully, Saturday, May 28, 2011 at Freeport Health Centre of Grand River Hospital in her 104th year. She was the last surviving child of John Everatt and Catherine Brunk of Petersburg. Vera always talked fondly of those early years and the strong family bonds created by her mother and her grandmother. She never forgot her siblings Anne Snider, Amanda Roth, Elizabeth Herner, Clara Lichty, Joesph Everatt, Catherine Mayer, Seleda Kropf, Sidney Everatt, Alvin Everatt or Erma Knarr. Vera had a very happy marriage with Raymond Herrle (1976), but they never had any children themselves. So every niece and nephew was special to her. We will all remember those times we visited and she gave us undivided attention and made us feel very important to her. And we were. A long time member of Stirling Ave. Mennonite Church in Kitchener.
