Mrs. Yerby was always warm, loving, gracious, and kind to all of the Macchia's. We loved having her a part of each holiday our family shared together and her hearty laugh will be sorely missed by all.
Lots of love to Kris, Carol, Tess, Siena, Mark and family,
Steve and Ruth Macchia
Bekah, Nate, Ashley, and Brenna too

Dear Yerby family, Kent and I were so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom and grandmother. She was such a sharp dresser, so politically savvy, and an outgoing lady who clearly loved and was so proud of her family. Our prayers are with each of you, Love, Kent, Ben, Robin, Ben, and Maya

To family you are not alone during this time of sorrow and pain. May God give your family strength and comfort to help you endure this loss. As you remember your beloved one, the God of peace give you comfort and peace in every way. May you find Strength from the love and care that surrounds you and comfort in the memories that you shared. Please accept my sincere condolences
