So sorry for your loss, Yvonne was a beautiful soul.
Many prayers for the Keshick family. From Jody Werner
May your journey to the other side, be as peaceful as here. Remember when she came to live with us in San Francisco! We camped along the way, and on the Fourth of July we had a blinding snow storm! Remember seeing Jaws. Visiting The City. Embacaradaro. Riding the Trolly to the Wharf. Too many memories to post. But all in our memories, Yvonne Marie! The Spirits will decide when we shall meet again, you have many who are holding you as you dance together in the Heavenly Realm!
Loving thoughts and prayers for all.
Sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family.
I heard some sad news today and my heart hurts for the loss of my good friend, Keshick. What happen? I can’t believe you are gone. Why? We were just talking about meeting up again. What am I going to do without a friend like you? You will forever be remembered, until we meet again. Peace and love, Lynette
