Vera Jean (Moran) Loer, 71, of Humboldt, Minnesota passed away at the Kittson Memorial Healthcare Center on Sunday, November 3, 2019.

Vera was born May 19, 1948 to Joseph Alfred and Mabel Bertha (Burnell) Moran in Hallock, Minnesota.  The family lived in Lancaster, Minnesota and later moved to Hallock where she graduated from high school in 1966.  After high school, she married Roger Jacob Loer (of Humboldt) on December 4, 1966 in Kellogg, Idaho.  They lived in both Idaho and Washington State before moving back to Humboldt in 1972.  They started farming there and Vera worked at the Kittson County Nursing Home until 1978 and then worked at Motor Coach Industries in Pembina until she was forced to retire because of her COPD. Vera also helped on the farm, moving equipment, running after parts and serving meals to the workers in the harvest fields.

Vera was active in the community as a Boy Scout Den Mother, Humboldt Methodist Women's Auxiliary member, Eagles Auxiliary member and International Auto Workers Union member. Vera enjoyed gardening, canning as well as cooking and baking for her family, especially her "Prince Charming" Roger.
