Veronica truly was one of the most sweetest, kind hearted, supportive and loving individuals I have ever met in my entire life. She epitomized the true meaning of looking at one’s life of “glass is half full rather than glass is half empty” approach. She would always see the glimmer of light in a most dark situation. I met her in 1988 when my husband and I stayed with them for my first official family reunion. Immediately you felt her warmth, kindness and sweetness which matched her outer beauty. Her laughter and smile would make everyone around her smile and laugh as well. Through the years of marriage, children and staying with them when in town with our family and continuing on the tradition of the “younger cousins” becoming close like we the parents by doing vacations together made Veronica very happy. Veronica wasn’t just a teacher in the sense of what other people think of but a true teacher in the sense of what you think of with Jesus. Like Him, V lived and taught her faith and values by actions and words. Truly lifting up those that needed it, turning the other cheek and always, always being there whenever. To love Veronica was easy because she radiated just that. Our hearts are breaking for John, Sarah, Michael and the rest of the Argento family as well as the extended Lopez family. We have lost a “one of a kind” individual and it’s a tremendous loss for anyone that Veronica touched. We are all better for having this lovely soul in our lives. God keep and bless you V!

I am sorry to read of the passing of Veronica. We met in class at Fairmont State around 1982 and we both graduated with Home Ec Degrees. We later reunited at UC while our daughters swam for the HYCAT Swim Team.
Veronica had a Beautiful Smile and Heart for others.
