Hi there, my name is Sonnie, and I'm reaching out on behalf of a grieving family who needs your help.

Losing a loved one at any time is heart wrenching. But when it's the life of a child it is magnified tremendously. Veronica was an amazing 13 year old with a huge heart! She was bright, funny, and genuinely cared about others. She touched the lives of so many and will be missed terribly! At a time when her family is grieving this loss, it breaks my heart that they are overwhelmed with the expense of the arrangements for saying goodbye. The funeral alone will cost $7,000 and that doesn't include urns or any of the expenses from the accident. Please look within your hearts and share what you can. Every penny counts and no amount is too small! I can't imagine losing one of my children so young.

Veronica Marie "Miss V." Turpel, age 13 of Shalersville Twp., passed away unexpectedly, Friday, June 14, 2024 after a tragic automobile accident. She was born on September 10, 2010 in Ravenna, Ohio to Martin James and Janna Marie (Ramsey) Turpel.

Veronica was a very spirited soul. She loved singing, arts, dancing to Native American music, being a social butterfly, laughing and running and being with her friends. She had a special fondness for animals and enjoyed being in the outdoors and camping. She was a proud Crestwood Red Devil and just completed her 7th Grade Year. Veronica loved aggravating her family to get their attention, but she truly wore her heart on her sleeve and never missed an opportunity to say "I love you".
