For more than 40 years I have had the blessing of being connected to Yolanda. And yes, she made me a member of the Landry Family. Although I will miss her physical presence, the spirit of her love, which she implanted deep within my heart will always be with me. She taught us all that love is eternal. So rest in the arms of the Lord Mama Landry, as you celebrate your heavenly homecoming with all of your loved ones.
