Yvonne and Haralson were married in 1964 in West Feliciana Parish. Yvonne lived the remaining years of her life in the parish where she raised her family and made lifelong friends. She was active in the community and enjoyed her life there. She was devoted to her family who always knew that she loved them. Undertaking many volunteer jobs from church nursery worker and treasurer to Girl Scout leader to swimming lessons teacher (to name a few), Yvonne ensured her children were well rounded. She was also quite versatile: enjoyed playing bridge and tennis, sewing and cooking, traveling and experiencing new foods. While she was able, gardening was also a favorite pastime. Later in life, watching tennis and LSU sports were a must. Always intellectually curious, Yvonne spent many hours doing research on her Kindle, reading, and watching game shows, especially Jeopardy. She loved to laugh. She was a fascinating and independent lady, touched many lives, and will be missed greatly.
