LeVerne was born on April 10, 1927 in Dalhart to Emmett and Lois Oldaker. She graduated from high school in Texhoma, Oklahoma. LeVerne spent most of her life in Stratford working alongside her husband, Walter on their family farm. She was a dedicated wife, mother and friend and always willing to lend a helping hand on the farm and in the home. She was a homemaker at heart and loved being a mother. LeVerne enjoyed spending time with her children and cherished family. She loved piano music, spending time watching the sunset and enjoying her garden. Although she wasn’t an avid gardener, LeVerne loved flowers and being outdoors. LeVerne and her husband always loved to travel together, and would often fly their plane to College Station for an Aggies football game any chance they got. She had an infectious sense of humor and often made those around her laugh. LeVerne enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, attending their sporting events and stock shows.  She leaves behind a grateful family full of sweet memories.

LeVerne was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Walter Lasley Jr.

Survivors include her three children, Walter Lasley and wife Kris of Amarillo; Sandie Woods and husband Steve of Dallas; Griffith Lasley and wife Beverlyn of Stratford; 10 Grandchildren, 15 Great-grandchildren, 5 step-grandchildren and 8 step great-grandchildren.
