Celebrate Yolanda Parker's Life and Legacy

Dear Family, Friends & Community.

My name is Goldie, along with my partner Jerimaiah, who we all know as Yolanda's son.

We come to you with a heavy heart but also with hope in our collective humanity.

Today, I am reaching out to you with your kindness, your compassion & with your support as we navigate through an unimaginable tragedy.

We mourn & celebrate the loss of our beloved Yolanda Parker, whose bright light was extinguished far too soon. At 49 years old Yolanda has left us from a terrible & sudden heart attack that became a cardiac arrest, leaving behind a void in the hearts of all who knew her. As we all know Yolanda, she did not deserve this no matter where she stood in your life. She deserves the most upright respect, love and unconditional love. Yolanda truly has a very powerful spirit, every room she walked into has brought happiness, peace and truth.

From Chicago to St Louis Yolanda is favorites all around. She has touched the heart of every person she came into contact with. Her energy was amazing. It does not matter what terms you were on in the past she always had a way of people coming right back. She embodied the spirit of determination, strength, passion & a contagious zest for life. She definitely will be remembered as the one who loves to celebrate & turn up. Yolanda had an impact on everyone, as many traits as I can think of Yolanda, was & still is the ultimate character.

Yolanda was more than a daughter, mother, wife, sister, cousin, etc. She was a beacon of love for her family & friends. I would like to say as we go through this hard time I am positive Yolanda is looking upon everyone & spreading hope & positivity. She would want us to celebrate her life & cherish every moment & never be forgotten.

Now, in the wake of this tragedy we have an opportunity to honor Yolanda legacy and support her family in the time of need. The funds we raise will go towards honoring Yolanda's memory with a dignified celebration and covering the cost of the cremation. Additionally we aim to provide temporary assistance to help the family's needs.

Your donations, no matter how small or how big, will make a tremendous difference. They will serve as a lifeline for a grieving family, offering them a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. Together, we can show them that they are not alone, that their community stands with them in solidarity and support.

As we come together to mourn, let us celebrate her life along with the impact she made on everyone. May her spirit continue to inspire us to cherish every moment of our own life & as we cherish every moment we have with our loved ones.

Thank you for your generosity, love, support, & compassion, this means more than words can describe.

With heartfelt gratitude, Goldie & Jerimaiah.
