I am so sorry to hear that Yvonne has left us but I am rejoicing to know that she is with our LORD and Savior and her dear husband. She has always been a special friend to my mama and Lee and I. My mother loved her so much and so did I. Yvonne was a beautiful lady inside and out. The few times we were able to get over to see us was such a joyous time for mom and I. Please know that I am praying for GOD'S peace and comfort for you all during this difficult time. Love you all..
