We are Tammy Yu’s new parents-in-law. Tammy married our son, Greg, last November. We only met Yon in May of 2025, on Mother’s Day, but we have heard about her for a long time. We loved getting acquainted with Yon at the wedding, and meeting so many of her friends and family. We are so sorry to hear about her passing. We promise to be Tammy’s loving parents, as she has lost both.
Lovingly and in sadness,
Carol and Jeff Fisher
