She attended school in Creswell, OR, and later moved to Ellensburg where she met her husband, retired Ellensburg Chief of Police, John T. Larsen. They married on October, 5, 1956, and were married until John's passing June 23, 1988. Vetta was also preceded in death by her son Robert (Bob) Larsen and her parents. Yvette is survived by her son LTC.

      Yvette and John moved from Ellensburg to LaConner in 1975 and finished raising their family there. In 1983, Yvette and John then moved to Tacoma, WA to be near their children, who
      were all serving in the military at various places around the world. Yvette moved to University Place with her daughter in 1993. Yvette was a member of the Retail Clerk's Executive Board, 1971-1984. Chairman of LaConner Sea Scout Ship #83, 1976-1984. She worked in the restaurant, credit and grocery industries in Ellensburg until she began her career as Grocery
      Manager in Mt. Vernon until 1983. She then moved to Tacoma and began her next career with the military as a civilian employee. Yvette worked at the Bangor Substation Commissary, Fort Lewis Commercial Accounts (Finance), Fort Shafter HI Commercial Accounts, and for Guaranty Mortgage as a loan officer. Yvette loved to work and truly touched the lives of all who worked with and for her. Yvette lived an amazing life. She has so many "children" and friends that it is impossible to acknowledge them all. She lived for her children, and inspired them to be the best they could be, no matter the road they chose. Her friendship was true and just, her love unconditional, and her generosity endless. She passed with many of her children and grandchildren at her side, and they were given the privilege of handing her off to her precious Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

      A celebration of Yvette's life will be held at Olympic View Baptist Church, 4707 Elwood Drive West, University Place, WA 98466 on Saturday, August 18th, 2007, at 3:00 pm.
