| | Yolanda Austin's Funeral Services Set For This Friday And Saturday
By Lonce LaMon - May 10, 2011
Funeral and Memorial Services will be held for Yolanda Austin, veteran California Workers' Compensation Claims Adjuster, on May 13th, this Friday, and May 14th, this coming Saturday.
Yolanda Austin died of cancer after a short illness last Wednesday, May 4th. She was in her late 40s and is now survived by two sons and a daughter, Erika Fractious. Erika is also a professional in workers' compensation claims.
When asked to give a reference for Yolanda Austin in the recent past, Workers' Compensation & Safety Supervisor Antoinette Lee, of the City of Pasadena, stated, "She's awesome, she's a good examiner, a great overall person."
Antoinette described Yolanda as one of those people you could really talk to, as she was refreshing, and she could make you laugh about something if you were having a bad day.
"She was always laughing, smiling, always bubbly," Antoinette added.
Antoinette Lee, left, and Yolanda Austin, right, ran into each other by coincidence at a "Girls' Night Out" Christmas party at an L.A. area restaurant in 2007.
Yolanda Austin worked at Kemper Insurance Company in Sacramento and Rancho Cordova during the late 1990s. It was at Kemper that she worked with Antoinette Lee. Then, in December of 2007, both Yolanda and Antoinette attended a "Girls Night Out" Christmas party at an L.A. area restaurant, one not knowing that the other one would be there. Then, they enjoyed the surprise that they were both now working in Southern California in the Los Angeles area.
The services will be held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park, 21300 Via Verde Drive, Covina, California 91724. The viewing of the body will be on Friday, May 13th between the hours of 5 pm and 9 pm. The funeral will take place the next day, Saturday, May 14th at 2 pm.
Flowers can be sent to Forest Lawn. The family is accepting donations, which can be sent to 1050 So. Grand Avenue, Apartment P-16, Diamond Bar, CA 91765, Attention: Erika N. Fractious (Yolanda's daughter). Erika may be contacted at erika.fractious@gmail.com.
