Yolanda

Anglin

Yolanda Cecilia Anglin passed away on September 12, 2023, at the age of 73, following a sudden and terminal diagnosis of cancer. She was born on November 1, 1949, in Colon, Panama. Yolanda, also known as Yoli, was a loving and kind individual who had a sharp tongue, wit, and a great sense of humor. She had a passion for cooking and enjoyed eating good food. She also was a consummate gardener and leaves behind the pride of her garden: over 50 rose bushes. Yolanda was fastidious and had a creative side.

In her career, Yolanda was a cosmetologist and held various positions: manager at the JCPenney hair salon and hairstylist. She had a talent for making people feel beautiful and confident. Yolanda remained active in her retirement as a cosmetologist by going to the homes of the elderly who were less mobile and styling their hair.

Outside of work, Yolanda collected porcelain dolls. She took great pride in finding unique and beautiful dolls to add to her collection. Her collection is a masterpiece, each doll telling a unique story and captivating (or frightening) all who laid eyes on them.

Yolanda was predeceased by her beloved husband Rogelio (Roger) Sr., 27 years ago. She never remarried, saying that she would never find anyone to cherish and respect her as well as he. She is survived by her children Nichole, Rogelio (Roger) Jr., and several siblings and family.

No services will be held. In memory of Yolanda, contributions can be made to the United Negro College Fund or Habitat for Humanity, organizations that were close to her heart and aligned with her values. May Yolanda's soul find eternal peace as we remember her with love and gratitude.
