Vera, a resident of Portage for many years, was born Sept. 13, 1912, in the township of Lowville on a farm near Poynette. The youngest daughter of William L. and Grace (Utter) Woodward, she married Charles L. Shafer in 1933. Vera attended a one-room country schoolhouse through eighth grade and graduated from Poynette High School. She was employed by WIBU for three years, Kroger's for 16 years, A&P for 19 years, Divine Savior Hospital for 15 years and Jefferson Home Health for three years. At age 76, she retired to Brillion to be near her daughter. Vera was a life-long member of the Methodist Church but worshiped with her daughter at Ebenezer United Church of Christ in Chilton after relocation. She was a long-time member of the Royal Neighbors of America. She enjoyed dogs and other animals, crocheting, flowers, gardening, music and bird watching. Vera maintained a long list of people for whom she prayed each day.

Vera is survived by two daughters, Charlaine (Charles) Parsons, Hilbert and Celeste (Thomas) Kendall, Evanston, Ill.; four grandchildren, Scott Parsons, Appleton, Sheri Giese, New Holstein, Darrell Parsons, Brillion, and William Kendall, Evanston, Ill.; two great-granddaughters, Cassondra and Alexandra Parsons of Brillion; numerous nieces and nephews; and two friends, David Giese and Jane Kopidlansky, both of Brillion.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; two sisters, Almeda Wilson and Hildred Green; and a brother, J. Richard Woodward.

Funeral services will be held at 5 p.m. on Saturday at the Poynette Methodist Church, with Pastor Kathleen Gloff of Chilton officiating.
