Yoly light up the world since 2/24/1928 for 87 years
In a nutshell; Yoly LIVED!
One of the things that the children remember the most is Yoly and George dancing Tango. They weren't experts, but it was exciting and beautiful to watch. She lost her dancing partner too soon, but never stopped being the amazing woman that she always was. Yoly enjoyed traveling, spoke five languages (recently learning mandarin too) and loved her family above all. She dedicated the following 34 years to them. She taught yoga for over 20 years to family and friends, never asking a penny for it. She enjoyed knitting, she knitted so much that we could probably clothe a small country. She was mesmerized by the world; almost visited all 7 wonders, but something as simple as a crossword puzzle fascinated her as well. Yoly had a huge passion for learning; not a day in her life went by that she didn’t try to challenge herself to learn something new. She was an avid reader, she could be reading 5 books at once. Yoly was and still is a lady of many stories. Stories from times shared with her family and friends, as well as some on her own and maybe some made up too. Now we have one more story to tell; she has reunited with her dancing partner. Not yet experts, but they are surely keeping Heaven entertained with their exciting and beautiful tango.
