Vera was a role model for me, generous, inquisitive, and so energetic.
She and Sy welcomed us numerous times to their home and lake cabin. I will always remember our wonderful meals together. Whenever my energy flagged over the years, I would think of her cooking, teaching, knitting, gardening, swimming, and stoking the sauna. Her insatiable curiosity as evidenced by her interests in Buddhism, massage therapy, pottery, and numerous other pursuits was an inspiration.
She was a great friend and will be dearly missed.
I extend my condolences to the entire Theisen family.
Marjorie
