Obituary for Yvonne Fannie O'Bannon
In Loving Memory of Yvonne OβBannon
With heavy hearts we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Yvonne OβBannon on March 11, 2025, at the age of 68 years old. Yvonne also known as βFannieβ was a loving wife, devoted mother, βcharismaticβ grandmother, sister and friend who touched the hearts of everyone in her life, with her wisdoms, love, honest truth, charm and charisma like no other.

Married to the love of her life Ronald L. OβBannon. After raising children in Hyde Park, the family relocated to Milton, Massachusetts. Yvonneβs life was full of passion and love for her family. After being a retired beautician, she stayed home with her sons and grandchildren.
Yvonne fought a great battle against cancer for the past year. She kept her head held high and exhibited amazing and miraculous strength, to endure what she did. She didnβt complain but instead faced ever treatment head on with dignity!
Before treatments she was given a cognitive test. Throughout the entire time she would write Yvonn OβBannon I Love All of My Family. Always kept hope of the next holiday or season to come. Never showing any signs of surrendering or giving up. She showed us what true strength and courage looks and feels like.
She surpassed the expectations of man with the journey which in the end took a toll on her.
βMy Queenβ as she was called by brotherβ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦.My Queen has closed her eyes.
Our mother spent her life providing and making a home for her children and grandchildren. Endless love, endless advice always brought joy and love, like no other.

Yvonne and I were BFF for quite a few years. We were pregnant together her with her 3rd child me with my 1st and only child. We were like sisters she was the nicest person with her beautiful smile. We lost contact with each other but when she returned to Massachusetts I made my way over to see her. Although distance and time we did not communicate with each she was always in my heart and mind. She will be missed especially by her extended family who were her first priority in life. My fondest memory of her and there were so many was when we were both 8 months pregnant and we went Christmas shopping to Framingham shopping mall. We saw a Chinese restaurant and we both said we wanted to stop and get something to eat. The waiter sat us in a booth that could barely allow our pregnant stomachs to sit in but we did and we had a great lunch. Ronnie chastised us for driving to Framingham in our condition but we didn't care we had a great day. This is one of many memories I have with my BFF Yvonne will always have a special place on my heart. Rest in peace and love for the family
