Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Knowing you for the past 20 years has been a joy. The fun and laughter we all shared together! Thanks for putting my boys to work when you needed help…they always were ready to go help you with whatever and shoot the breeze. Rest easy now Verlin. Say hello to Dad…This is not goodbye, but see you later on the beautiful shores of heaven❤️Lisa and family
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. When my mom was at Rosewood, Verlin was on the same floor as she was and he was always so pleasant as we visited. He had a nice smile and greeting when we would see him.
My condolences to all Will miss his bright spirit even though havent seen him in quite awhile
Cousin Pam
My sincere condolences to all of my cousin Verlin’s family. Unfortunately, we hadn’t talked recently but I always enjoyed our conversations. We were first cousins but there was over 13 years difference in age. Consequently, he was able to share family history and stories from the past, with me. Stories about my parents, relatives, the farms where we grew up, and the neighbors we both knew. I will miss those conversations and his great laugh.
Prayers and deepest sympathies to all.
Cousin Wayne
Sending my love and prayers to the Buechler family. Pop was a sweet and thoughtful man; I know he is full of joy smiling with the Lord right now and because of that we can rejoice.
Thank you for your service to our Country and for your work of helping local Veterans with the DAV.
You always answered the call for giving rides to needed Veterans when we called from Cass County Veterans service. Mike Vandrovec
