Kevin, Linda, Beverley, and Robert. So very sorry for your loss. Yvonne was a great lady and will be sadly missed by all who knew her. She was a true friend always willing to lend a hand or, if needed, a shoulder to cry on. We take comfort in knowing that she is now with her Lord and Savior, and that we will see her again in the resurrection. Today Yvonne is reunited with Clyde and her many family and friends who were awaiting her arrival. Just a little longer the trumpet will sound, the rapture take place and, we will be together again. Thoughts and prayers are with you today and during the days of difficulty that lie ahead. May God’s blessings be upon you all.

Dear Linda, Kevin, Robert, Bev, and your families: We were very sorry to hear about Yvonne’s passing. When we lived next door to you in our younger years, she was always such a nice and sweet soul. In later years, my friend Enid Gosse, who has since passed away, always spoke highly of Yvonne when she found out that we had been neighbours, and she told me that Yvonne always helped her with making out her Christmas cards when Enid’s vision failed. Yvonne was a special person and I am happy that our Pendergast family were fortunate to know her. Hugs to you all.
