MERRICK Verna A Maynard
On the morning of Saturday, Oct. 30, 2010, Verna A. (Merrick) Maynard
of East Canton went home to be with the Lord while at Robert Packer Hospital,
with her loving family at her side. She was 81 years of age. Born Nov.
2, 1928, in LeRoy, she was the daughter of Luther J. and Ruth (Crofut)
Merrick. Verna grew up at the family homestead in a house built by her
great-grandfather. Following her graduation from Canton High School she
took a secretarial position in Wellsboro and made her residence there.
One Sunday while attending church she met a young soldier returning home
from the war named Carroll Maynard. Friendship led to courtship and in
December of 1947 they were married. Carroll went back to school in Houghton,
N.Y. and Verna worked as a secretary at the college. Carroll felt the Lord's
call and entered the ministry, and he and Verna served churches in Ithaca
and Rome, N.Y., for several years. Verna proved to be the ideal pastor's
helpmate, with her warm, friendly manner and generous heart. Upon Carroll's
retirement in 1984, the Maynard family, now including two sons and three
daughters, moved back to Canton. Verna took a position as a secretary with
the law offices of Vineski, Brann and Williams. She also served as secretary
of the East Canton United Methodist Church. Carroll died

that her true hobby was being a people person. Verna loved the company
of family and friends, especially her friends at the Canton Mennonite Church,
where she was famous for her hugs. She kept active in all aspects of church
life, remaining young at heart and devoting her time and energy to the
Lord's work for as long as her health permitted. Verna is survived by:
