Veronica, daughter of the late Jacob and Anna (Dul) Rembis, was born in Haverhill and and educated in local schools. She lived in Salem for many years. She was predeceased by her first husband, Stephen M. Kubara and her second husband, Ernest L. Neville.
Veronica lived a full life. She will be long remembered for her sense of style and fashion, enjoying all things sparkly and purple.

She lived life and embraced it and her passion for dancing will be long remembered. She was an enthusiastic fan of the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots and many years ago, was crowned Miss Methuen. Veronica touched many lives in her 99 years. She was a warm and generous woman whose kind and thoughtful ways will not be forgotten.
