Yolanda Nancy Megonnell

Carlisle, Pennsylvania.

Born on December 15, 1932, in Duryea, Pennsylvania, to the late Joseph and Mary (Lucarelli) Martinelli.

Yolanda lived a life filled with love and dedication. She was the office manager at Hershey’s International

and later served as the Boro Secretary for York Springs Boro. Her strong work ethic and commitment

to her community left a lasting impact on those she worked with.

Beyond her professional life, Yolanda found immense joy in her family and personal passions. She was

known for her incredible talent in the kitchen, especially for making pasta and preparing delicious Italian

meals that brought loved ones together. She cherished entertaining family and friends, creating

countless memories around the dining room table. An avid collector of rooster figurines, she took pride

in her unique collection. Traveling and beach vacations were among her favorite pastimes, allowing her

to explore new places while enjoying the company of those she held dear.

Faith played an important role in Yolanda’s life. A Christian with Catholic roots, she attended Trinity Lutheran Church in York Springs, where she found spiritual fulfillment and community.
