Yvonne Heneisen Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sunset Funeral Home, Cremation Center & Cemetery on Feb. 16, 2025.
Yvonne R. Heneisen, aged 76, passed away peacefully on February 13, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on February 27, 1949, to the late Harold and Margie Jones, Yvonne's life was one of vibrancy, love, and the joy of simple pleasures.
Yvonne was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She is survived by her loving children, Larry Porter and Robert Gordon. Her legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren, Kimberly Porter, Alyssa Zapata and her husband Maurice, Larry Porter II and his wife Krystal, and Robert Gordon II, as well as several adored great-grandchildren. She was a sister to Richard Gordon and was preceded in death by her son Dwayne Gordon and her brother Paul Jones.
Throughout her life, Yvonne found happiness in the melodies of Elvis Presley, whose music provided the soundtrack to many fond memories. Her passion for travel took her on numerous adventures, exploring new places and embracing different cultures with an open heart. Yvonne's affection for dogs was evident to all who knew her; her furry companions were a source of endless joy and companionship.
Yvonne's warm presence and the love she had for her family will be deeply missed. Her spirit, characterized by her kindness and the care she extended to others, will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know her. As we remember Yvonne, we celebrate a life well-lived, full of the moments that matter most. Her memory will be cherished and kept alive in the stories shared by her family and the many lives she touched.

Yvonne was one of my best friends. I worked at the nursing home she was at for a little time but she was such an impact on who I am today. She was the reason I wanted to go to work everyday. Since I met her she helped me bring out the real me. I shared my whole life with her since I met her and I loved her like she was my grandma. She was the most amazing person and I have never met anyone even close to the person she was to me. She knew everything about me and my life and we listened to Elvis and I showed her pictures of my dogs when she was sad. I will always remember her just being her silly goofy self and snorting at me and sticking her tongue out at me all the time. I could go on and on about her and I would but I will never forget how much she helped me and how much I love her
