I had the pleasure of being Yvonne's nurse for the past year and got to sit with her for 4 hours each week where we explored many topics. I loved hearing about her family and her CPS days as well as her love for cooking. She always had a way of putting a smile on my face, although I was there to make her feel better. Her strong will and appreciation for life reminded me of how precious it is and I will always keep her memory with me. My deepest condolences to all that loved her.

I would like to send my deepest sympathy to Yvonne's family. I am so sorry I was not able to share my condolences in person as I was out of town. Yvonne and I go way back to her days In CPS when she oversaw the OT Department - we worked endless hours together. She was a kind and gentle person who will truly be missed! May she rest in peace.

Sincerely,

Linda Haworth-O'Brien
