In loving memory of our wonderful Yvonne ‘Yonnie’ Barrow, who sadly passed away on 2nd September 2026, aged 90.
A truly unforgettable character, Yonnie lived a remarkable life filled with family, friendship, laughter and more than a little mischief. Known for her incredible strength, wicked sense of humour, naughty songs and larger-than-life personality, she brought so much love and laughter to everyone around her.
After 46 years at Guinness Square, Yonnie was very much at the heart of the community, just as she was at the heart of our family.
This page is a place for everyone who knew and loved Yonnie to come together to remember her, share their photographs, stories and favourite memories, and celebrate a very special woman and a life incredibly well lived.
She leaves behind a lifetime of memories, laughter and love that will be treasured forever.
Yonnie had such a bright, cheerful smile, great laugh, an elegant sense of style and a love of all things pink that will always be remembered. She was a truly lovely lady whose warmth and happiness touched so many lives. She will be remembered with great fondness and sadly missed. 💗
I have many fond memories of wonderful Yonnie. My earliest ones were when she and Rita worked together in a Government post room. The funny stories she would share with us. The singing! She was a lovely part of my time spent with you all many years ago. Kathy, Linda and the children who are now the grown ups. Rest in peace dear Yonnie, you were so special to us all xx
Sorry to hear of Yvonne's passing, my sincerest condolences to her family and friends, a life well lived, may she Rest in Peace.❤️
FABULOUS!!
