Born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, Veronica graduated from Thomas Edison High School in 1985. She went on to work as a paralegal for many prominent San Antonio attorneys until she was no longer able to work.
Veronica was an incredibly humorous individual with a witty personality. If you were to ask just about any of her friends or loved ones, the first word they would likely use to describe her is “sarcastic”. However, even underneath all that sarcasm she was a person who loved very hard.
Veronica always loved a good party. She was a very social person who loved to spend quality time with family & friends, whether it was sitting out on a patio listening to 80s rock or watching a live band.
After a long battle with rapidly progressing Multiple Sclerosis, Veronica is finally at peace. Today, we may be mourning the loss of a loved one… But may we cherish the special place in our hearts that will always be reserved for her.
