Our sympathy for the whole Yerkes family. Aunt Joan was so loved. Uncle Dave and Aunt Joan are my role models of family, of faith, and of love! We thank God for the loving memories of our dear Aunt Joan. Her laugh especially was a reflection of just how she celebrated life! God Bless! Joseph & Michele Dombrowski Family
