Vera Huff, a long time member of First Baptist, passed away on this day in 1989. She left her entire estate, valued at over $1,000,000 at the time, to First Baptist. Her house became our second missionary residence, and Pat King, head of the Missionary Residence Committee, headed up the renovation of the house. Her estate also funded repairs in what we now know as the Vera Huff building, which was also recently renovated again.

The legacy of Vera Huff, a faithful member of our church, lives on today.
