Veronica Groll

Veronica was born in Chicago, Illinois on November 13, 1962, to Anitha Jackson Frazier and Sherman Joseph. She was the third oldest out of eight children. Veronica always had a bigger than life personality and when she walked in a room, you would never forget her. Veronica's family and close friends called her Ronnie and truly loved her with all their hearts!!! 

Ronnie was a very compassionate and beautiful person and would always give great advice and encourage all who needed comforting. Ronnie was the best mom and loved her daughter Resa so much, it was always Ronnie and Resa!!! Ronnie was a wonderful granny, she always made time for her grandchildren from the time they came into the world!!! (Amira, Antonio and Noelle) 

She also was a loyal and loving sister, auntie, cousin, niece and friend!!! And from the time her nieces and nephews were born she became their second mom, so instead of just Resa she had 6 kids to care for, and that she did! She also cared for her 3 brothers David, Rabbit and Ronald! And then her special cousin Dee, who truly was her sister in heart! Another special person was Ditivia who held a special place in her heart. When she came to Chicago she always had gifts in hand and love, all wrapped up in that beautiful smile of hers. 

Another quality she possessed was keeping it real with whoever needed it at the time. Also she loved the microphone and the camera, and we're going to leave it at that! There's not enough words to express about this beautiful, awesome and vibrant

my sister and best friend!!! But to say she will be truly missed from the heart!!!
