Zemrela neobycejna zena, ktera mi byla babickou i kamaradkou. Prozila se mnou chvile nejtezsi i ty, nejstastnejsi. Je tezke smirit se s tim, ze uz ji nikdy neuvidim. Nikdy nezapomenu na spolecne sledovani jejich oblibenych serialu, to jak se rozciluje na ridice, co se nerozjeli na zelenou, na vylety do hot springs, na jeji bezmeznou lasku a oddanost manzelovi a cele rodine. I presto, ze nikdy nebyla v Kanade uplne stastna, prijala ji za svuj domov, tezce pracovala a kazdou volnou chvili venovala rodine. Neznam jinou zenu, ktera by v polovine zivota sbalila dve dospivajici deti a sla do absolutni nejistoty zivota a prace v Kanade. Vzdy pro me byla a bude vzorem silne zeny, kterou jsem obdivovala. Bude nam vsem moc chybet. Uprimnou soustrast cele rodine. ~ Rodina Hlouškova


I was not only Yvette’s hairdresser but very good friend. I’ll cherish every conversation we had. I told her I wouldn’t be the woman I am without her guidance. I will truly miss her. ~ Anjie Browne


Thinking of you all Milos, Sandra, and family and Yvette and family. Such a brave woman she was to move with your dad to another country to give new opportunities to you Milos and Yvette and especially with needing to learn a new language as an adult. They built a beautiful life for you all here and I know you will miss your mom a lot. Sending all our love. Elaine and Rob and family. ~ Rob and Elaine Doel
