Vera (Greenland) Hervat Obituary (1941

Our beautiful, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend passed away peacefully on June 7, 2016. Kay Greenland Hervat was born August 28, 1941 to William John Greenland II and Raida Callister Greenland. Kay had a great love and respect for her parents, especially her father. She had a happy childhood growing up on West Vine Street in Tooele with her sisters and brothers and she loved to share memories from those times. Kay graduated from Tooele High in 1959. On September 13, 1961 she married Paul Hervat and together they began a lifetime of happiness. They had one son, Greg. Kay was a tennis player and passed on her love of sports to Greg. She and Paul spent many summers following Greg around the state playing baseball and tennis. Kay was a fun loving individual who loved to laugh and enjoy the company of family and friends. Her home was the choice place for many kids from the neighborhood to hang out. Her greatest joy and happiness in life centered on her family, especially her grandchildren and their accomplishments. We are grateful for her positive influence on our lives. Although her love and laughter will be missed by many, we know there is a great reunion and celebration welcoming her back to her heavenly home. Kay leaves behind her son Greg, daughter-in-law Lesley, granddaughter Blake, grandson Jake, sister LaRae (Ron) Nielson, brothers John Greenland III, DeeWayne Greenland, Allan (Patti) Greenland, brother-in-law Jim Hervat and many nieces, nephews, and friends. She is preceded in death by her parents and sister Janiel (Craig) Lohnes. There will be a viewing at Tate Mortuary on Sunday, June 12, 2016 from 6:00 to 8:00pm. Graveside services will be held on Monday, June 13, 2016 at 11:00 am at the Tooele City Cemetery. Kay, we wish we had more time with you but weâ€™ll tell you all about it when we see you again. We love you! To send flowers or a memorial gift to the family of Vera Kay (Greenland) Hervat please visit our Sympathy Store.
