Book Vision

The Book of LaVerne is a legacy-centered work that transforms the life of LaVerne into a twelve-month guide for living with dignity, modesty, faith, and matriarchal strength. The themes of Love, Forgiveness and Restoration will be interwoven throughout the book. LaVerne was demonstrative of all of these in her lifetime.

The book presents LaVerne not simply as a remembered woman, but as a model of character and spiritual influence whose life becomes a blueprint for families, women, and communities seeking values rooted in faith, grace, and resilience.

Structured as a 12-chapter monthly journey, the book invites readers to reflect on principles that shaped LaVerne’s life and the legacy she leaves behind.

Each chapter represents a month of the year, allowing readers to return to the book annually as a calendar of wisdom, reflection, and personal growth.

The work also serves as the foundational document for the LaVerne Legacy Foundation, supporting scholarships, philanthropic giving, and community uplift.

During the Homegoing Celebration of Eunice LaVerne Smith Perry, Rev. Arthur L. Hunt, Jr., gave the eulogy, 'The Book of Laverne'. Now the message is becoming a movement to continue the legacy of one of God's greatest vessels. The actual book is coming to life.

During the next 8 months the book is timed to be released on LaVerne's 87, Birthday, December 3, 2026.

This opening invitation allows family, friends and well-wishers to show honor and love to help donate to the cause and the costs to get this vision actualized.

This will be the first Mother's Day that I will not have my mother in the human vessel. I need prayer and strength from those who loved her so much and those of you who are both family and friends who would like to share a special moment with me and our family.

We are setting up a Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit entity to honor her life and preserve her legacy with the highest regard. I'm hosting a special event at my home. Some of you will be able to attend, others can send your will wishes and certainly a donation to assist us will be such a blessing. It will be on Mother's Day and you can register here.

We are raising $7,000 to complete our budget to get the writing, publishing and printing for our first order.

We thank you in advance. For those who wish and can do your contribution today, please do so via my CashApp again at: $lil06041957 to Sharon Crockett.

Your information will be captured, and you will be a part of our legacy keepsake founding contributors.
