My Deepest and Most Heartfelt Sympathy to each and every member of the Yetterboe Family....From the times we met on horseback down the shelterbelt to me being at every family gathering at Donald and Laura's i think we were just about inseperable.....Then seems like marriages part us but memories linger on. We didn't ever have bus to ride but both Mr and Mrs Yetterboe were my kids' bus driver and One of my Granddaughters Paige Christ was your moms CNA while at Ava Maria.....What a small world.....Growning up i think we (Shirley and I) had 2 families, now we can say we go back 3 generation and hardly seem to meet any more....Everyone including Mrs Yetterboe was tell me what Shirley was up too....Every time i was in the hospital Mrs. Yetterboe would have to stop up and check up on me and see why i was there and i always got a little note on my menu....She had the sweetest way to make you smile no matter how you felt.....xoxoxo to you all.......You lost a very special mom.....Hugs Mrs. Yetterboe.....Say Hello to everyone....Until we meet again...GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU.......
