  6. My deepest sympathies to you. Yvonne was very special to our family and we enjoyed her so much! She helped take care of my parents when they were at Trollwood together. We loved her spitfire personality. I think she felt a sense of purpose helping my folks and we became good friends. I talked to her on the phone not so long ago and she remembered me. We used to all go to K- Nails for pedicures together alone with Nancy Johnson who lived next door. We also took some jaunts together in my car out to eat and to see the leaves at maple wood and around town. My parents Ruby and Alvin loved having her around and her frequent visits. My dad passed away in 2000 and my mom just passed in October 2024 at 99. We cherish her memory and wish God’s comfort and peace for your family
