Yolanda was such a great person, friend and mentor to me while she was still around, and now that she rests I will continue to go further because I know she wouldn’t want to see me give up. I love you Yolanda im going to miss you.

I did not know Yolanda long! Our husbands are friends and we met on a trip to Greece in 2024! She was not “well” BUT she was a trooper! We walked the hills and stairs and streets in Santorini in 90+ degrees and she NEVER quit! She was determined to enjoy every bit of that trip. As I sit today at her funeral I learned that quitting was not in her DNA! She was a wonderful spirit that I wish I had met earlier! Prayers to the Family!!
