Obituary for Vernetta M. Robbins (Humphries)

Robbins, Vernetta M. "Netta"
(nee Humphries) Of South Milwaukee, age 72, died at her home April 14, 2017. She was born on June 23, 1944 to Vernon Humphries and Bernice Bragg.
She leaves behind 2 children; Robyn White and Jodi Kanitz, 4 grandchildren; Max Brulz, Codey White, Cole (Nicole) White, and Deshawn Wilson, and a grandchild on the way. She was preceded in her death by her daughter Dawn Brulz, who died at the age of 48. Netta grew up in Boise, Idaho and leaves behind many family members along the west coast: an aunt she was very fond of Gladys Sorhouet, and a brother whom kept on her, Dusty Humphries.
She at times was spontaneous about everything and enjoyed life. She especially has a passion for dancing, and her yearly trips to Las Vegas. Netta was a successful cosmetologist and a manager at Wal-Mart. She enjoyed both. and put her all into her work. She had a following of clients for decades, and some of these ladies became very dear to her, and became her lifelong friends.
Netta would like to let you know that her work here is done. She received a call, for an appointment from which she will not be returning. This assignment comes with a huge sign-on bonus, a reunion with family and friends she had not seen in a long time. Her new mission takes her to a wonderful place where she will be socializing, dancing, gardening and reading to her heart's content. Music, laughter and love are guaranteed.
In keeping with the wishes of Netta M. Robbins there will be no funeral service. Memorial cards will be available at Molthen-Bell of South Milwaukee.
-Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4
