My heart goes out to the family during this painful time. I had the privilege of working alongside Yvonne at VNSNY. I will always remember the love, compassion, and gentleness she brought into every room she entered. She cared for others with a sincerity that can?t be taught ? it was simply who she was. Praying for strength, peace, and healing in the days ahead.🙏🏽
