In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her 10 year old son, Michael G. Mockler.
She was a member of the Tuesday Club, The Goff Plaza Garden Club and was a volunteer counselor for the Navy Relief Society for young Marines and sailors with problems. She received a letter of Commendation from the American Red Cross for her development and supervision of the Camp Pendleton Base Volunteer Hospital Program. She attended Maryville College of the Sacred Heart and was a member of the Alumni Association of Maryville University. Yvonne enjoyed painting and gave many of her works to her family and friends over the years.

Mockler; daughters and sons-in-law, Beth and John Poe and Laura and Steve Schultz; grandsons, Ryan and Connor Poe and Steven Schultz; sister, Michele Bollwerk; brother and sister-in-law, Roger and Doris Fournelle; brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Gary and Rita Mockler and several nephews.
Yvonne has resided with her family in Missouri, Virginia, North Carolina, Morocco, Washington D.C., Hawaii, Rhode Island, California and finally saving the best for last, West Virginia for the last 24 years. She loved shopping, shopping, crossword puzzles and shopping. To say that she was an elegant dresser would have been an understatement. Yvonne's main attribute was KINDNESS to everyone. She loved people and people loved her!
