Dean and Becky,

I'm so sorry I wasn't able to attend your mom's funeral Saturday. She was such a fun lady, full of life! My mom, Emily Yanecek Larkin, really enjoyed her. Two Masses will be offered for Velma: Tues, Feb. 6th at 12:05 p.m. at Immaculate Conception and Monday, March 4th at 6:30 p.m. at St. Wenceslaus both in Cedar Rapids. May God's peace and love surround all of your family.

With deepest sympathy, Cindy Larkin McElliott

Velma was a wonderful friend and companion to our Dad in the years they spent together. They had a lot of fun and laughter with each other. They came out to Washington for a visit, and bless her heart, she hauled a bag of poppy seeds out here to teach me how to make Kolaches!! Nothing like learning from a Master!! She was a nice lady. I am very sorry for your family's loss. Take care, Peggy

Dean - I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

What I learned when my parents passed away you take one day at a time, you live for the memories and it shows your support. If you need anything or just talk just let me know. I've known Dean probably since the 80,s. when I worked at NCS.

What a great lady with some wonderful memories! And if I have some I’m sure you have a lifetime of memories to keep her in your hearts! The best memory was when your Dad was alive. Watching My Dad & Mom and your Mom and Dad dancing around the floor & stopping to talk & laugh way into the next dance.My partner and I dancing had to smile at the simplicity of a good time and know that many generations were having fun at the same time. When I think of your mom she always looked smiling and happy no matter what life threw her way!
