Yandie.. I don't know where to start or what to say. I feel like I saw you yesterday but recently realized it's been over 2 years. 2 years to long I told Mike the biggest role model and influence in our lifes is gone... gone from this earth but always in our minds he will live on forever..I remember many many stories I could tell he had his strict moments when I was blowing it he would be the first to tell me. He pushed us to succeed and even gave us opertunities we would have never had with out him. Yandell yes our teacher but for many in out class we all agree we were more then just students to him he truly was a great guy and will be missed greatly.. class of 2005

"Yandy" as many of the kids called him when my son was in his class was a strait shooter and exemplified what a mentor and Teacher should be. He was hands on always willing to help and gave his time happily to Rincon, the Students and community. He was an all around Good Guy and will be missed. Our Family Offers its solemn condolences to The Yandell Family,

Sincerely,
The Ochoa-Toussau Family

Susan, Warner and I send deep condolences to you and the "kids." Although many years have passed and we are grandparents now, we fondly remember many carefree days at Roosevelt lake and the White mountains camping with the kids all playing in the great outdoors with the "laketrash" club. We were recently sorting photos and saw one of you and Andrew when he was about 3. Our prayers are for you all in the coming days. I will pass the word on to my parents (Gene and Cele).

Sincerely,
Warner and Cindy
