Yvonne D. Lewis was born June 5, 1955, in Baltimore, Maryland to Ruth E. Heath and Jerome T. Heath. It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of the beloved mother, who was the mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend.

Yvonne’s love extended beyond her immediate family, as she embraced her role as a grandmother with open arms. Her grandchildren and great grandchildren were the light of her life, and she cherished every moment spent with them, creating memories that will be treasured forever.
Yvonne had a passion for helping others and dedicated much of her time, lending a listening ear to those in need, or simply offering a warm smile and words of encouragement. Her compassion knew no bounds. She believed in the power of kindness and made it her mission to make a positive impact on the lives of others.
In her free time, Yvonne enjoyed the simple pleasures of life such as going to the Horseshoe Casino, watching YouTube, listening to music, dancing, singing and playing Candy Crush. She loved to travel, had had an appreciation for hanging around family and friends and found solace in spending time outdoors, whether it was shopping with others, or just going to the malls, alone. She always ensured that everyone felt welcomed and nourished in her presence.
