Vera Mae Anderson was born in Mooringsport, Louisiana on July 30, 1925 to Willard Allen George and Rena Ann Hatcher George. She went to be with her Lord and Savior on June 25, 2016. Vera loved her church and was a member of Judson Community Baptist Church. She was a homemaker, and the best cook ever. She was well known for her famous chicken and dumplings, which were made from scratch and the "best in the world". She loved fishing, camping and doing things with her grandkids. She was quite a craftsman and enjoyed making Christmas ornaments (her specialties were Angels and Stars). She also loved to sew, and made all the family quilts, which will always be treasures. Vera had a keen sense of humor.

A graveside service will be held at 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, June 29, 2016 at the Colonial Gardens Cemetery under the direction of Downs Funeral Home, with a visitation preceding the service from 9-10 a.m.
