Laverne (Boone) Pino, 85, of Lake Proctor, went home to meet her Lord and Savior April 24, 2020. She was born September 30, 1934, in Jacksboro, Texas to James A. Boone and Lena Frie Boone. Laverne married her devoted husband of fifty years, Dr. Alfonso Pino, on July 2, 1970, in Oklahoma.

Laverne was a long-time member of De Leon First Baptist Church. She loved her church family and the years she was able to worship with them. Laverne retired after many years serving as a medical assistant. She and Dr. Pino have lived in Comanche County for fifty years. She had a witty sense of humor and enjoyed making others laugh. She was a talented seamstress and loved needle pointing. Laverne's family was her greatest joy in life. She was a loving wife, devoted mother and grandmother, loyal sister and friend to so many. She will be missed beyond measure by all who knew and loved her.
