I'm so sorry about your loss, Stephanie and Stacey. I will always remember your mom from when I was a child. I remember her cutting my hair using a picture from a magazine that I brought to her. She was full of life just like you girls!

Yvonne was a wonderful woman, she was a second mother to me when Stephanie and I were growing up. Some of my best memories are her witty comments. She was a heck of a woman!
