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.
