Our deepest heartfelt condolences to Jenny, Marshall & Trace as well as his father and grandmother. So many people loved Yancey as he was a great man. He was so proud of his wife and sons, always boasting about something they had done with that huge smile spread across his face! Lord, hold him close until we are all reunited again. Godspeed my friend.

A good man was taken but he will live on through everybody that knew him. From the little I know and saw he was a caring husband father and friend. His big personality had a way of making people feel comfortable and at ease like he had always been an old friend.
Jenny, you and the boys will always have help and support whenever you need it from us.
I am keeping you all in my thoughts and will be available for any support you need
