It saddens me that another memory of the Yokay family has passed away. John was the brother of Leatrice Yokay Greaser, in my Class of 1950 at Monongah (WV) High School, and the late Patty Yokay Maddox, who passed away 3 years ago. My heartfelt condolences to the family, I publish the Monongah High Alumni blog and am planning a tribute article on John. You can check out my blog by clicking on the blue jo4wvu.blogspot.com
