My Condolences to the Burt and family. I worked with Yvonne at Manitoba Housing for many years. She was a very kind person and easy to work with. Burt and Yvonne were a perfect pair. Burt was a real charmer and showed his love to her by sending her a carnation to her every week. - Posted by: Darlene Marsch (Co-worker) on: Feb 21, 2026
