The family moved to Emmett, Idaho in 1944 where Vern operated the Emmett Dairy. Verda's positive loving demeanor touched countless lives. She was the nucleolus of her family, and was known by her grandchildren as "Saint Verda." She was a talented woman, loving to share her love for flowers, the outdoors, quilting, cooking and canning with her children and grandchildren. She won many awards and blue ribbons for her beautiful quilts. She was an avid reader and loved studying birds and watching them out her window. She always kept fresh flowers, and a full candy dish in her home. It was her signature. She taught her girls that "Every day I wake up and I choose what kind of a kind of a day I will have. I can choose to be happy or I can choose not to be happy. I always choose to be happy." Vernon passed away in 1963. Verda and Dick continued to operate the dairy for many years. Verda married George Moeller in 1974. They enjoyed gardening, fishing and making a home together. George passed away in 1987. Verda was preceded in death by her parents, her six siblings, her husbands Vern and George and her son Dick. She is survived by her two daughters, Cinda (Jay) Jensen, and Netti Bain of Emmett and her son-in-law Dan Bain of Emmett. Her Grandchildren, Rick (Terry) Davis of Eagle River Alaska, Buzz (Chris) Davis of McCall, Tim Willis of Boise, Jeff Ulmer of Kuna, Andrea (Mark) Penner of Caldwell, Jill (Buck) Nash of Emmett and Amy Willis of Astoria, Ore. and step Grandchildren, Jayna (Ken) Eichelberger; Laurie (Tim) Bean; Rene' Jensen; Dan (Shauna) Bain; and Shawna Bain Ulrich.
