John Yancey lost his wife today

Post by Reelman2 »

Long time ORCA member John Yancey of Astor Florida lost his wife today. John, who is also my barber has been my friend and fellow ORCAN for nearly 20 years. I new his wife and her suffering with kidney problems. My prayer goes out to him and his family.

Dear John
Its been 4 yrs since Diane and I have last seen you. We have taken the pandemic seriously and cut our off farm travels to a minimum. We have missed making the shows and seeing you . Diane and I were sadden to hear of your Wife's passing and want you to know you will be in our thoughts.
