“Our condolences to the family. Yuri was a strong, smart,pioneer role model for women. As a honorable CouncilMember and friend, I truely admired her and what she had to teach. Her roses she so kindly gave me will live in my yard with care and they are beautiful every year they bloom, which make me think of her with love. She was my friend and I was so fortune to have her come into my life. Her family has lost a true gem, but will always have her guiding way in their hearts. Love Les & Glenda”
