Yvette  is the definition of the word love. She loved her family with her whole heart and soul. Yvette served her community for years through her work as a manager of Unicel cell phone company. Upon her retirement, she and her sister, Sharon, started “ Two Sisters Cleaning Service” where she worked until she was no longer able, due to the diagnosis of Dementia.

Yvette was a mentor to her children and grandchildren, teaching them the joy of cooking and gardening. Yvette always had an eye to see the beauty in everything, and loved to antique shop, and go Goodwill  hunting.

She will be forever remembered for her infectious smile, witty sense of humor, and the unconditional love she had for her family. We know that she is walking hand-in-hand with her father and stepfather watching over us all in Heaven.  The family is asking that any donations be sent to the Mississippi chapter of the  Alzheimer’s Association, in hopes that one day we can find a cure for this life altering, thief of a disease.
