    Twenty plus years of memories with Yogi coming flooding back to me. Words cannot say how much my wife Steph and I loved Yogi, nor how good a man he was to his family, friends, and co-workers. My heart reaches out to Kim and family in this time of grieving. Yogi, you are finally at peace. We will miss you but never forget you.

    Michael and Kim, please take time to care for yourselves, I know this has been a hard journey for both of you. Keep in mind that Yogi has no more pain or suffering, he is in heaven with the girls and they are having a party together. He loved all of you so much, you could always see it in his eyes. May he rest in peace and you all recover from this. Love to all of you.
