Velora was born on March 19, 1928 to Rudolph and Clara (Riggert) Stohs. On June 3, 1951, she was united in marriage to Floyd Ross Wollenberg at Immanuel Lutheran Church, Bremen.
She cooked for the Marysville School District, then worked 30 years for Blue Valley Tele-Communications. Velora also assisted with cleaning people’s homes for the SRS Department. As a hobby, she was a huge stamp collector, starting collecting as a child.
Velora was a member of Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church and was involved with several organizations within the church. She attended Trinity Lutheran Church in Ft. Scott after moving there shortly after her daughter’s death to be close to her son and his family.
She is survived by her son, Mark (Tammy) Wollenberg, KS; brothers, Victor (Leila) Stohs, KS, Walton (Joann) Stohs, MO; sisters, Florence Abitz, KS, LaVonne (Richard) Weichman, KS; three grandchildren, Chelsea, Krista and Cole; and many nieces and nephews.

A memorial fund is established and the family will designate at a later time. Contributions may be sent in care of Kinsley Mortuary, Marysville.
