Yvonne Draper Jensen, 88, of Shelley, Idaho passed away December 14, 2021, while residing at the Fairwinds assisted living center.

Yvonne was born June 19, 1933, in Shelley, though her parents lived in Moroni, Utah at the time where she was raised.

Yvonne was athletic and friendly. She never met a stranger she didn’t already seem to know.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Chad, and younger brother, Gail Grant Draper.

Yvonne is survived by her younger sister, Marilyn Draper Hamilton, son, C. Kerry (Peggy) Jensen of Rigby, son, M. Ricky (Brenda) Jensen of Shelley, daughter, Mary Maria (Clyde) Gatton of Antigo, Wisconsin, son, Daniel L. (Denett) Jensen of Rigby, 13 grandchildren and 39 great-grandchildren.

All of her children regarded her as an angel.
