We cannot even imagine what your family is going through. We had no idea that Yvonne was ill and are in complete shock. Her devotion to her family, friends, and especially her faith were evident to us through involvement in her church, the schools, and the Weston community. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time of sorrow.

Alan and Family,
Our hearts go out to you and your family at the passing of Yvonne. There are no words that I can say that will heal your heavy hearts at this time. Just knowing that you have family and friends that care and all the memories of the fun times you had with Yvonne will get you through those days that are tougher than others. I'm so glad that we had a few Memorial Days that we could meet each other and talk and laugh with the rest of the Anderson's.
Prayers go out to you and your family at this time.
Love,
John, Marsha, Courtney and Samantha Anderson
