Vera Mae Nimitz, 77, of Hillister, Texas, passed away Thursday, January 16, 2020, in Beaumont.
Graveside service will be held at 2:00 p.m., Monday, January 20, 2020, at New Hope Cemetery in Center with Bro. Steve Noble officiating. Visitation will be held prior to the service at Watson & Sons Funeral Home in Center, beginning at noon.
Mrs. Nimitz was born December 4, 1942, in Center, to Robert H. Adams Sr. and Ruby Christine Pate Belsha. From stories told, she had it pretty rough, but she never let her circumstances hold her back. She raised three children. She had a strong conviction about things and once she had her mind made up there was no changing it. Bless the ones on the other end. She had many talents from cooking biscuits from scratch to quilting. She enjoyed her garden and also enjoyed junkin’ before junkin’ was cool! One of her favorite things to do was going shopping and finding a great deal. Her sense of fashion was always ahead of her time. She had a timeless style. During her 77 adventurous years, she was a mother to three, an aunt to many, a grandmother to seven, and a great-grandmother to five. She loved deeply and fully.
