My wife, Janet, and I spent a lot of time over the last few years sitting with Yvonne enjoying conversation on many different topics. To say we will miss her is an understatement. She always enjoyed laughing and telling stories,. She talked often of Calvin and her son John. She always compared John to James Drury’s character The Virginian. Blessings for the family.
