They share their home with Taro, a shepherd-collie mix and Brandy, their newest adoptee from the humane society. Verna and Ivan have a combined family of 7 married children, 20 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren. Verna has been a real estate broker since 1978, owning her own realty business since 1993. Her office walls are filled with awards earned over her many years in the business. She has a bachelor’s degree in education and worked as an educator for 14 years in both the elementary and secondary programs. In 1993, Verna self-published a real estate-related book named Being in Real Estate is Like Being Pregnant – either you are or your aren’t. She has had several articles published in real estate related magazines on the national and local level. Her files are filled with writing projects waiting to come to life. One of her favorite pastimes is to sit on the deck at their lake cottage – just about three miles from their village home – and read or work on her scrapbooks. Fishing off the pier, playing the organ, listening to music, enjoying her grandchildren, and working on community service projects fill out her busy schedule. As this book goes to print, she is preparing to be the President of the local Chamber of Commerce. Eighteen months of a lifetime is chronicled in the pages of Cancer Doesn’t Knock.view less
