She told the story of waking as a child on the 4th to the sound of gunfire thinking everyone was celebrating her birthday. Vera eloped with Leonard Chauncey Vose on October 1, 1938. Early in their marriage, they moved to Nampa, Idaho along with her extended family. Vera worked alongside Leonard starting and pastoring Baptist churches in small communities in Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and British Columbia. Vera enjoyed gardening, reading her Bible, playing the piano, table games, crafts, and ice cream. The couple had eight children. She loved to wake her children with a hearty "Rise and Shine!" After 57 years of marriage, Leonard passed away in 1995. Vera moved from her home on Vancouver Island to Abbottsford to be near family.
