Yvette Lynn Malone

Yvette Lynn Malone, age 60, of Bowler passed away on Friday, January 2, 2026, in Shawano, leaving behind a legacy of strength, love, and countless cherished memories. Yvette was born on March 4, 1965, in Milwaukee to the late Robert "Dick" Lasher and Eva Evon Malone. Yvette was united in marriage to Randean Granquist September 20, 1989. She was a member of Stockbridge Bible Church. Yvette was the enrollment office specialist for the tribe. She had a deep love for creativity and tradition, finding joy in sewing, beading, and crafting things by hand. Halloween was one of Yvette's favorite times of year, a season she embraced with enthusiasm and warmth. Sundays were special to her, as she faithfully attended church and drew strength from her faith. Yvette also took great pride in her traditional tribal ways, honoring her heritage and passing those values and beauty on to those around her.

Above all, Yvette was known for her kindness and caring heart. She loved people and would do anything to help someone in need; she was always putting others before herself. Her home was filled with laughter, warmth, and the certainty she would always be there. Yvette was the rock of her family-a loving, fierce mother, devoted wife, cherished grandmother (Gaga), auntie, and sister. Her grandchildren held a special place in her heart, and Yvette showered them with love and guidance. She will be remembered for her love and compassion.

Yvette is survived by her loving husband, Randean Granquist; children, Tony (Maunee) Granquist, Eva Granquist, Desaray (Kurtis Sr.) Granquist, and Leanna (Christopher) Granquist; grandchildren- Melaina, Maiyah, Cordell, Kora, Kane, Lucas, Keanu, Treyvon, Kayniah, Kurtis Jr., Taidyn, Muxkw, Yvette, Meexchaw, and Cleo; sister, Clorissa (Robert) Vele; brother, Marv Malone; and nieces and nephews, Brett, Todd, Robert, Tanya, Crystal, and Melody.
