Yvette found immense joy in worship and shared that joy through her involvement in weekly Bible studies and the church choir. Her participation in these activities was an expression of her deep connection to her faith community.

Yvette's love for her family was boundless, and she never missed an opportunity to support her two boys, Cameron and Connor, in their various sports endeavors. Whether it be basketball, baseball, track, soccer, or football, Yvette was a constant presence on the sidelines, cheering on her sons with unparalleled enthusiasm.

A multisport athlete in her youth, Yvette's passion for sports continued throughout her life.
