We remember Yvonne as a person who was quick to laugh and enjoyed life to the fullest. Yvonne to us was a person who was pragmatic and dealt with life realistically. She always took an avid interest in people.

Posted on: Friday, August 13, 2021I met Yvonne while working at The Waterford. Yvonne joined the book club I started and we shared our love of reading and finding new authors. She enjoyed attending Author Talks at the Waterford and going to the Innisfil Library. She was gifted also in knitting and gave me many donations to give to Nursing Home Residents. Her pride and joy was her family and close friends. I shall miss our many lovely conversations.
