To Yvette's Family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I used to scrapbook with Yvette at Cynthia Ainsleys. We had so many laughs and jokes.
Yvette always lit up the room and that is how I will always remember her.

Patti,Kathi,Traci and Terri

I wanted to share this story with you,as I knew you would appreciate it. My daughter Charris (whom Yvette always showed great affection to) returned from a week long trip today. As we were going to dinner she was telling us about all the wildlife she had seen thru the week. Her favorite? A "beautiful Oriole" that landed at the campsite early on Tuesday. We told her that the Oriole was one of Yvette's favorite birds. She replied "I knew there was something special about that bird.... "
That story was almost as cool as the end to end rainbow Rob and I saw as we were leaving the funeral home on Thursday night...

Look for the little miracles...

I have had the privilege of working with Yvette at DSS. She always had a kind word and encouragement to give. She was not only a wonderful person, but a role model of a mom. She will be missed.

Our son, Kyle Leary, went to school with Patrick from pre-K to 3rd grade. While we only knew Yvette for a short time we remember her bright smile, how much she loved her family and her dedication to helping children at Pine Grove. We extend our deepest sympathies to your family.

I've had the honor of working with Yvette at the Malden DSS office and was always inspired by her care and compassion for the kids she worked with. The children of the Commonwealth lost one of their best advocates....She will be sorely missed.

We will be eternally greatful to Yvette, for thru her, and her compassion as a social worker, our family was created.
She shared many stories of her beloved Thomas and Patrick with us,and Caity still remembers the days she and Patrick played during her visits. We all loved when she came for tea and date bars(even though we knew she was on "official" adoption business)
Thank you Yvette, for making what seemed to be an impossible dream, possible. You will be truly missed by many.
May you spirit soar and protect always.
With love,
Rob, Michelle, Charris, and Caity
