WANDA YOST (nee: VANCE) 

Age 89, of Aquilla Village, peacefully passed away on June 14, 2023, at UH Geauga Medical Center.

Born July 9, 1933 to John and Bessie Vance in Pennsylvania, later settling in West Virginia.  On March 28, 1951, she married Burrlie Glenn Yost in Cleveland, Ohio.  They moved to Aquilla Village in 1959, where they raised their sons.

For nearly thirty years, Wanda served lunch at Chardon Middle School, and thoroughly enjoyed the students she met.  She loved to travel with her husband, visiting many places throughout the years, especially trips to West Virginia.  Wanda was a garden enthusiast, taking great pride in her yard and flower gardens.  But her truest joy was the time spent with her family. 

Wanda is survived by her son, Richard of Aquilla Village; grandsons, Scott, Eric and Nathen; nephews, William and Richard Lee Yost, and John “Van” Vance Jr.  She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, son, Robert, and brother John Vance, Sr.
