January 4, 1987 — March 17, 2026

It is with profound sadness and enduring love that we announce the passing of our beloved Yvette Gibson, who departed this life peacefully at home on March 17, 2026, at the age of 39. Yvette was a cherished daughter, a devoted mother, a loving sister, and a treasured friend to many. Her journey began on January 4, 1987, in the warm embrace of Lexington, Mississippi, a place she always called home. Yvette was the beloved daughter of Patricia Gibson and the late Booker T. Epps, who instilled in her the values of kindness, resilience, and unwavering compassion. Her father’s memory was a guiding light throughout her life, inspiring her to live with grace and strength. As a mother, Yvette was unparalleled. Her children were the center of her world, and her love for them was boundless. She leaves behind a legacy of warmth, wisdom, and humor that will continue to shine through her three beautiful grandchildren, who were her pride and joy. Yvette's nurturing spirit and gentle guidance will be deeply missed but forever cherished by those who were fortunate to call her "Mom" and "Grandma." Yvette's life was a testament to the power of community and connection. She was known for her open heart and her ability to make everyone she met feel valued and loved. Whether through her volunteer work, her church, or her everyday interactions, Yvette touched countless lives with her generosity and empathy. Her laughter and positive energy were infectious, leaving an indelible mark on everyone she encountered. The family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to all who have offered their support and condolences during this difficult time. Your kindness and compassion have been a source of comfort and strength, and for that, we thank you all. In honoring Yvette’s memory, let us remember the incredible impact she made in her short but meaningful life. May we carry forward her legacy by living with the same love and kindness that she exemplified every day. A celebration of Yvette’s life will be held on [Date] at [Location]. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to [Charity/Organization] in Yvette’s name, a gesture that would honor her lifelong commitment to helping others. Yvette, though your time with us was far too brief, your spirit will forever remain a guiding light in our hearts. We take solace in knowing that you are now reunited with those who have gone before, finding peace in their company. Rest gently, dear Yvette, as we keep your memory alive in our hearts.
