She grew up in the Alazan area, and attended Alazan School, and then Harmony School. Because of circumstances right before her last year in school, she had to quit and go to work for the school cafeteria. It was soon after, that she met Earnest Beall.

Earnest and Verna were married on June 17, 1944, and soon began a beautiful family. In 1952 they moved to Houston, this is where they raised their four young children. Thirty three years later in 1985 they decided to move back to Nacogdoches where they lived the rest of their lives together until the passing of Earnest in 2004. Verna enjoyed reading, and cooking.
