I have known Willene and Landon since 1962 and have been friends since. I was totally shocked when Landon called and told me that Willene had passed away. I will totally will miss talking to her on the telephone laughing and trying to keep up with what is going on with our family. She will be truly missed by all that knew her and loved her. Landon the pain will be lessen as the years go by but the memories you greatly cherish will always be there. My prayers for the Yant family that God will wrap his arms around you and give you the strength and endurance during this difficult time. My love for you Willene is going with you.
