So sorry for your loss of Yvonne. I was a neighbor of your mom & dad a few miles from them when they lived on the farm. I used to baby sit for the older ones, Elaine, Ron & maybe the next one. Such a sweet & beautiful lady. My condolences. May she rest in peace. Sharon (Sauvageau) Fritz.
I’m very sorry for the loss of your loved one. I worked at Edgewood Vista for quite some time; I regularly helped take care of Yvonne. She was so sweet and gentle. I enjoyed visiting with her. I’ll miss her and her slightly purple tinted hair.
