Yvonne was born on September 23, 1969 in Kansas City, MO. She was a beloved wife, devoted mother and a friend to many. She always gave from her heart and took care of all. Yvonne never said “no” and she always had an upbeat attitude, with a smile on her face. Her gentle spirit and caring nature were infinite. Even through great personal loss, she persevered and continued to be a caregiver to everyone around her. She grew up in Shawnee Church of the Nazarene and lived her life in a Christian manner. Yvonne was a warm spirit and kind soul, which carried through her work as a cosmetologist, childcare provider and personal caregiver.
Yvonne was preceded in death by her mother, Sharon; father, Dewane; numerous aunts; uncles; and grandparents; as well as her adored dogs. She is survived by her husband, Dan Jr.; her son, Drew and his significant other, Bethany; her sisters, Julie Young (Louis) and Dawn Forrester (Noel); her many nieces; nephews; her aunt, Susan Klick; her step-father, Bill Sanders; her father-in-law and mother-in-law, Dan Sr. and Donna Brooks; her sister-in-law, Deirdre Daniels (Joe); very close family friend, Bev Krohn; and her devoted dog, Turk “Turkey Boy”.
