Verna Marie Yoston
1937-2018
It is with appreciation for a life well-lived that the family
of Verna Marie Yoston, loving wife of Gordon Daniel Yoston, announces
her passing, which occurred peacefully at Bobby’s Hospice on
Tuesday, March 13, 2018, surrounded by those she loved. Born in Geary,
NB on February 8, 1937, she was a daughter of the late Lawrence and
Hazel (Freeze) Fournier.
Verna always enjoyed dancing and going for walks with her
special friends Bev and Lena. She will miss spending time
with her dog Parker, and relaxing on her patio. But above
all, Verna was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and
great grandmother, who loved spending time with her
family.
Verna will be missed by her husband Gordon of 28 years; her
children, Dorothy Sutton (George), Brian MacKenzie (Hope) and Avard
MacKenzie (Mary); her step-children, Pam Morton (Bruce), Terry Yoston
(Amanda), Lynn Yoston and Gail Yoston (Terry); her grandchildren, Kara
(David), Arthur (Courtenay), Laura (Aaron), Thomas (Sheena), John,
Jeff, David, Chris and Justin; several great grandchildren, including
Nolan, Hudson and Layla; her sisters, Olive Oram (Ron), Alice Vicars
(David), Gloria Davis and Pauline O’Rourke (Karl); brothers,
Daniel and Doug (Beverly); as well as several nieces, nephews and
friends.
In addition to her parents, Verna was predeceased by her
siblings: John, Charles, Bruce, Roberta and Helen.
Verna’s family would like to extend a special
“Thank you” to all of the wonderful staff and volunteers at
Bobby’s Hospice. You all made a very difficult time easier,
not only on Verna but also on her family. Your compassion
and care will not be forgotten.
