Vera L. Baca, 74, passed away of natural causes on Saturday November 9th, 2024 at her home in Naturita, CO. She was surrounded by her children and made the transition peacefully.
Vera was born the seventh child of Benjamin and Ruth Dunning in Scottsluff, Nebraska on February 28, 1950. She attended her primary and secondary education in Englewood, CO. After a successful career, Vera retired from the Defense Finance and Accounting Office in Aurora, CO and shortly after relocated to the western slope to be closer to her grandchildren and enjoy that part of the country. She enjoyed caring and decorating her home, and especially enjoyed any opportunity to spend with her grandchildren, family and friends. Vera never ceased to welcome people with her great smile, and she will be sorely missed.
Vera is preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Larry Dunning, Michael Dunning, David Dunning and Ben Dunning. She is survived by her sisters Judy Ross of Longmont Colorado and Veronica Manuel of Seal Beach California; two sons, Gale Sinks (Shannon) of Houston Texas, Joshua Sinks (Shawna) of Nucla, Colorado; six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
It was Vera’s wish to be cremated. A Celebration of her life will commence in the near spring.
