Dear Bob and family, Ken and I are so sorry that we can’t attend Yvonne’s Celebration of life. I know Yvonne would understand, she was all about family and she loved you all to the moon and back. And what a life it was. Our Great granddaughter Ava is returning from Alaska for a short time for her birthday. Also, our Granddaughter Krista is graduating from college, NIU. Ken and I were counting our nine cruises and road trips, we traveled together all over the world. When we got home,we would work on our scrapbooks of our trip and laugh about nobody else seeing them. I miss Yvonne,so much in common, whether it’s spring flowers, vegetable gardens, water lilies and our ponds, our orchids in February, family events, accomplishments, holidays, American Girl and on and on. She will truly be missed, Love and prayers to you all. Ken and Donna

I give my deepest sympathy to Uncle Bob and all of his and Aunt Yvonne's family. I am posting this picture of thier Godchild/Niece's first communion with Yvonne's parents. The three are all now in heaven with Yvonne and her siblings. So many memories with the Vanselow family, playing in their yard and fun with the above ground pool which included cookouts with other family members. Yvonne was quite the cook. There was a situation that instead of eating her food my son ate out of their dogs bowl (he was only crawling then), it only happend ONCE....lol. The incredibly decorative and delicious cakes that Yvonne would make for myself and siblings while we lived in Milwaukee. I have so many flash backs and so glad that I have them! Aunt Yvonne has been ever so generouse to our family. Thank you with so much love.

I’m so going to miss her calling or emailing me to find out what was going on with everyone. She always told me how cute the girls were and how much she loved seeing them on Facebook. Mike is going to miss her Schaum tortes for sure. She ALWAYS saved some for Mike w her delicious lemon curd. We will definitely miss you Yvonne ❤️
